Understanding Graphs of Motion

What does a sloping line on a distance-time graph indicate about an object's motion?

• The object is stationary.

• The object is moving at a constant speed.

• The object's velocity is increasing.

• The object's velocity is decreasing.

In a velocity-time graph, what does a horizontal line signify?

• The object is moving at a constant velocity.

• The object is accelerating.

• The object is decelerating.

• The object is stationary.

How is acceleration represented on a velocity-time graph?

• By the length of the graph.

• By the area under the graph.

• By the gradient of the graph.

• By the width of the graph.

What does the area under a velocity-time graph represent?

• The acceleration of the object.

• The displacement of the object.

• The speed of the object.

• The time taken by the object.

If the gradient of a velocity-time graph is zero, what does it indicate about the object's motion?

• The object is stationary.

• The object is accelerating.

• The object is decelerating.

• The object is moving at a constant speed.
