How can you tell on a distance time graph if the object is moving towards or away from you?

Only if you know your location (the coordinate on the distance scale and the time scale) where "you" are can you infer if the object is moving towards you (the absolute distance to the object is decreasing) or away from you (the distance is increasing).


On a distance time graph how can you tell which object is moving?

You can tell which object is moving by looking at the slope of the graph. A steeper slope indicates a faster-moving object, while a flatter slope indicates a slower-moving object. Additionally, a positive slope indicates forward motion, while a negative slope indicates backward motion.


How can tell the speed an object is moving?

D=RT, or in other words, to find the rate(R)(speed) of an object take the distance (D)traveled divided by the time(T).


What two things does average speed tell you?

Average speed tells you how fast an object is moving on average over a certain period. It also gives you an idea of the overall distance an object has traveled during that time.


How can you tell when balanced forces are acting on an object?

It will stop moving.


What does the gradient of a line on a distance-time graph tell us about an object?

The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the object's speed.


How does a graph tell you which object is moving faster?

It depends on what variables are graphed.


How can you tell if another object is moving and your also moving?

You can tell if another object is moving while you are also moving by observing changes in the position of the object relative to you over time. If the object's position changes relative to your position, it is likely moving, even if you are also in motion. Additionally, you can use external reference points or landmarks to determine if both you and the object are in motion.


How can you use integers to represent the velocity and the speed of an object?

This was the essential question on a homework assignment. Speed tells how fast an object is moving but it does not tell the direction. Velocity tells how fast an object is moving and it also tells the direction. When velocity is positive, the object is moving up. When velocity is negative, the object is moving down.


Does speed tell us what direction an object is moving?

Speed is a scalar quantity and has only magnitude and not direction. Hence, speed cannot tell us what direction an object is moving. However, velocity which is the vector equivalent of speed, can tell us the direction.


How do you convert a tme to distance?

You can't. A tme is not a recognized unit of measurement as far as I can tell.


When comparing two different lines on a position vs time graph how can you tell which object is moving faster?

The line which has greater slope stands for the fast moving object
