What does the slope of a distance vs time graph indicate about an object's motion?
instantaneous velocity
What feature of a distance ortime graph represents speed?
slope of the graph ... actually the absolute value of the slope, actual slope, positive or negative, would indicate direction, so the slope would be velocity.
What does the slope of the distance time graph represent?
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
Does a straight diagonal line on a distance versus time graph indicate constant speed?
Yes. Speed is the rate at which distance changes over time. In calculus terms v = dx/dt, or the slope of the distance vs. time graph. If the slope of the distance vs. time graph is a straight line, the speed is constant.
Is acceleration the slope of a line on a distance time graph?
No. The slope of the distance-time graph is the change in distance per unit of time - otherwise known as speed. Acceleration is the slope of the speed time graph.
What does the slope of a time vs distance graph equal?
Slope of time Vs distance graph gives the inverse of velocity.
What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?
acceleration
What motion does a steep slope on a distance time graph show?
Steep slope on a distance/time graph indicates high speed.
What is the slope in the distance time graph when the body is at rest?
the slope of distance time graph gives us velocity but when the body is at rest it will be zero
What does the slope of a force versus time graph indicate?
The slope of a force vs. time graph is equal to the change in momentum or the Impulse.
What does the slope on a distance-time motion graph indicate?
It shows the component of velocity in a radial direction. Any motion in a transverse direction is ignored.
What does the slope of a distanced-time graph indicate?
magnitude of velocity
