Interpreting and Creating Graphs

At 60 seconds, how far had this object traveled? 

• 0 m

• 10 m

• 20 m

• 40 m

What does this graph represent?

• Constant speed

• Acceleration

• Not moving

What is happening at D?

• Stationary

• Accelerating

• Fast steady speed; moving away from the starting position

• Slower steady speed; moving away from the starting position

What is happening at C?

• Stationary

• Accelerating

• Fast steady speed; moving away from the starting position

• Slower steady speed; moving away from the starting position

What does this graph represent?

• Constant speed

• Acceleration

• Not moving

How many times does this object STOP moving?

• None

• Once

• Twice

• Three times

What is this graph showing?

• Constant Speed

• Acceleration (speeding up)

• Deceleration (slowing down)

• No motion

Match the description to the graph:

"The car is traveling at a constant speed."

• 
• 
• 
• 

Segment O-A The bus is _________________.

• at rest

• returning (to original position)

• moving forward

Which graph (if any) shows the object moving at a constant speed, stopping, and then continuing to move in the same direction?

• 
• 
• 
• 
• none of these
