A horizontal line on an acceleration vs. time graph indicates constant acceleration over time. This means that the object is experiencing a steady rate of change in velocity.
Yes, it is possible to have zero acceleration with a non-zero velocity. This occurs when the velocity is constant. On a velocity-time graph, a flat, horizontal line represents constant velocity, while a zero slope (flat line) represents zero acceleration.
A vertical line segment on a velocity versus time graph represents an instantaneous change in velocity, which is physically impossible. It would mean that an object goes from one velocity to another instantly, without any acceleration. In reality, objects need time to change their velocity due to the presence of acceleration or deceleration.
The physical quantity measured under a speed-time graph is acceleration. This is because acceleration is represented by the gradient of the graph, where a steeper gradient indicates a higher acceleration.
No. A negative slope means that the object is slowing down. If the object were not moving, then its velocity would be zero. The graph would be a straight horizontal line that just lays there on the time axis.
A positive slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving in the positive direction (e.g., right or up) and experiencing a constant acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration of the object.
It means that the function is constant.
horizontal
The one that runs left to right, you mean..
The slope of a speed-time graph represents the acceleration of an object. A steeper positive slope indicates faster acceleration, while a negative slope indicates deceleration. A horizontal line indicates a constant speed with zero acceleration.
Constant speed..
if you mean the horizontal line on a graph t is refered to as the x axis or y=0
Yes, it is possible to have zero acceleration with a non-zero velocity. This occurs when the velocity is constant. On a velocity-time graph, a flat, horizontal line represents constant velocity, while a zero slope (flat line) represents zero acceleration.
An upward sloping diagonal line on a velocity vs. time graph represents constant acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration.
Constant speed. Zero acceleration.
It means that the object in question is moving at a constant speed.If the graph is a straight horizontal line, then the speed is zero.
What do you mean? As in if you connect two points that make a horizontal line? Are you trying to figure out the Slope? The slope of a horizontal line is 0. And the slope of a vertical line is undifined. If that's what you were asking. Or if you were asking plainly what it is when that happens, it's just a horizontal line.
The obect was stationary during the time period indicated by the end points of the horizontal section.
