A straight line sloping upwards on a position-time graph indicates that the object is moving with a constant positive velocity. The slope of the line represents the velocity of the object.
An upward sloping straight line.
The graph would be a straight line with a positive slope, indicating a constant displacement over time.
An Upward Sloping Straight Line. <3
The graph of displacement vs. time for something moving at a constant positive velocity would be a straight line sloping upwards, indicating a linear increase in displacement over time.
The velocity versus time graph would be a straight line sloping downward. The velocity would start at 0 when the object is released, then increase linearly in the negative direction as it accelerates due to gravity.
An upward sloping straight line.
The graph would be a straight line with a positive slope, indicating a constant displacement over time.
An upward sloping straight line indicates that the object being studied is moving away from the origin and that the component of its velocity in the radial direction is a constant. A downward sloping line indicates it is moving towards the origin. However, neither line says anything about the transverse component of its motion.
It means that as time goes on, the distance increases quickly.

The velocity versus time graph would be a straight line sloping downward. The velocity would start at 0 when the object is released, then increase linearly in the negative direction as it accelerates due to gravity.
An upward sloping diagonal line on a velocity vs. time graph represents constant acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration.
A body moving at a uniform speed may have a uniform velocity, or its velocity could be changing. How could that be? Let's look. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is speed.
The answer depends on what variables are being plotted.
It means that either the distance is measured from the starting-line and the object is moving forward, or else the distance is measured from the finish-line and the object is moving backwards, because the distance is growing as time goes on. If the upward sloping diagonal line is straight, it means the speed is constant. (not velocity)
You look at the contours. Steeply sloping contours with numbers that are increasing usually indicate that the height is increasing, and may be an indicator for hills. Contrastingly, steeply sloping contours with decreasing numbers indicate a decreasing altitude, and may indicate a depression or a valley.
