This video tutorial explains how to interpret distance versus time graphs to understand an object's motion. It covers key concepts such as distance, displacement, speed, and velocity, and how to calculate them. The video details how the slope and direction of a graph line indicate an object's speed and direction. Examples of different graph types, including constant speed, speeding up, and slowing down, are provided to illustrate these concepts.
