If it is distance from a point versus time, with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis, it would show a steep vertical climb on the graph. The steeper vertical change, the faster, but never completely vertical. Large "rise" (distance) over short "run" (time). With 0 acceleration, the graph is a straight line.

How would you describe the slope of a graph showing changing speed?

The angle of the graphed slope changes with changes in speed.


How would you describe the slope of a graph showing slow speed?

Im guessing that this is a distance over time graph. if so, the gradient of the line of best fit would have a low value. (not be very steep)

A car's distance-time graph is a straight libe with a steep slope ow would you describe the car's speed?

A straight line with a steep slope on a distance-time graph indicates that the car is traveling at a high and constant speed. The steepness of the slope represents the rate of distance covered over time, showing that the car is moving quickly. Since the line is straight, it implies that the speed does not change over the observed period.


Does the speed of a position time graph of an object gives the speed of the object?

No, but the slope of the graph does.


Does the slope of the line on a speed time graph tells the speed?

No. The slope on a speed vs time graph tells the acceleration.


Does the slope of a distance-graph give average speed?

A graph requires two numerical variables before it can have a meaningful slope. A distance-graph has only one variable so it does ot have a slope in any meaningful way. For eaxmple, you could have a graph showing the distances of varoius places from, say London.


In a graph speed versus time what is the meaning of the slope?

The slope of the speed-vs-time graph is the magnitude of acceleration.


What does the slope of the distance time graph give?

The slope of a distance-time graph gives the speed of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, while a flatter slope indicates a lower speed.


A car distance time graph is a straight line with a steep slope. How would you describe the car's speed?

If the slope is 'uphill' then the car is going faster


What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?

acceleration


How is a graph showing speed different from a graph showing acceleration?

Acceleration is how fast you get up to speed.
