SPEED
The slope of a distance-time graph represents the speed of an object. It is calculated as the ratio of the change in distance to the change in time. A steeper slope indicates a faster speed.
The ratio of distance to time remains constant for a body moving at a uniform speed because the speed is consistent over time, meaning the body covers equal distances in equal intervals of time. This leads to a constant ratio, which is the definition of constant speed (distance traveled per unit of time).
Distance and time.
The ratio of distance moved to the time taken to move that distance is the speed of the object. Speed is a measure of how quickly an object changes its position. Mathematically, speed = distance/time.
speed is the ratio of the distance an object moves per time unit (seconds,minutes hours)
It is the average speed.
The ratio of (distance) / (time), called "speed".The ratio of (speed) / (time), called "acceleration".The ratio of (force) / (area), called "pressure".The ratio of (force) / (acceleration), called "mass".The ratio of (mass) / (volume), called "density".The ratio of (distance) / (volume), sometimes called "fuel economy".The ratio of ( 1 ) / (time), called "frequency".The ratio of (energy) / (time), called "power".
rate equals distance divided by the time: example, one mile per hour would be 1 over 1. Ten miles (distance) over 1 hour (time) = 10 mph. Formula: r=d/t (rate equals distance over time)
A fraction is a ratio of two quantities which are measured in the same units. In a simple case, average speed is the ratio between the distance travelled and the time taken. However, the speed is not a fraction of wither the distance nor of the time.
Rates are ratios ... Speed is a rate of distance per unit of time... ratio of distance to time. Proportions are two equal ratios, whether they are rates or not.
Since speed is a ratio between distance and the time it took to move that distance, the two required measures are Distanceand Time.
The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance is sometimes colloquially phrased as "rise over run"; the numerically calculated value is called "slope". Mathematically, slope can be thought of as the tangent (function) of the "angle of elevation".
