On a distance–time graph, what does a straight diagonal line represent?
Stopped
Accelerating
Slowing down
Constant speed
On a distance–time graph, what does a flat horizontal line represent?
The object is moving faster
The object is accelerating
The object is slowing down
The object is stopped
On a velocity–time graph, what does an upward slope represent?
Constant speed
Stopped
Decelerating
Accelerating
On a velocity–time graph, what does a downward slope represent?
Accelerating
Constant speed
Stopped
Decelerating
On a velocity–time graph, what does a flat line above zero represent?
Stopped
Accelerating
Changing direction
Constant velocity
How can you tell when two objects have the same speed on a distance–time graph?
Their lines intersect
One line is higher
Both are flat
Their lines have the same slope
How can you tell which object is faster on a velocity–time graph?
The steeper line is slower
The lower line is faster
Both lines must cross
The higher line is faster
What does the steepness (slope) of a line represent on a distance–time graph?
The acceleration
The time
The starting point
The speed
How can you tell when an object is speeding up on a distance–time graph?
The line curves downward
The line is flat
The line slopes downward
The line curves upward
How can you tell when an object is slowing down on a distance–time graph?
The line curves upward
The line is flat
The line gets steeper
The line curves downward
What does the area under a velocity–time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Slope
Distance traveled
Why does a flat line on a velocity–time graph mean constant velocity?
The object is stopped
The slope is steep
The object is turning
The speed stays the same
Why does a curved line on a distance–time graph show acceleration?
The slope is straight
The line is flat
The line is higher
The slope changes
What is the difference between speed and velocity?
They mean the same thing
Velocity only happens in graphs
Speed is faster than velocity
Speed is distance/time; velocity includes direction
What pattern on a graph shows accelerate → constant speed → slow down?
Flat only
Flat → upward slope → downward slope
Downward slope → flat → upward slope
Upward slope → flat → downward slope
How can comparing multiple objects on the same graph help you?
You can see who drew the graph
You can see acceleration only
You can see time only
You can see who is faster or slower
On a distance–time graph, what does it mean if two lines intersect?
They are moving at the same speed
They are both accelerating
They are both stopped
They are at the same position at the same time
How can you tell when an object has greater acceleration on a velocity–time graph?
The line is lower
The line is higher
The line is flatter
The line is steeper
A roller coaster climbs slowly, stops at the top, then accelerates downhill. Which graph best represents this motion?
Upward slope → flat → downward slope
Flat only
Constant diagonal
Curved upward only
A soccer ball rolls across the field and slows down until it stops. Which graph best represents its motion?
Flat → upward slope
Diagonal line upward
Downward curve that flattens
Flat line above zero
