What is the speed of a car whose distance time graph indicated that it traveled 200m in 25 s?
8 meters per second
What does the slope of the graph indicate about the object's motion?
The answer will depend on whether the graph is a distance time graph or a speed time graph.The slope of a distance-time graph shows that speed of the object in the direction towards or away from the point of reference (usually the origin). It indicates absolutely nothing about its speed in any other direction. So, for example, an object could be rotating around the origin at the speed of light (the fastest possible) and the distance-time graph would show it being stationary bacause its distance from the origin is not changing!The slope of the speed-time graph indicated the acceleration of the object, again with the same qualification.
How can speed be determined from a graph of distance vs time?
Slope of the graph will give you speed.
What type of graph do you use for speed?
Line graph.
Can forces can be indicated on graph paper by use of interaction coefficients?
no
How speed of zero would appear on a graph?
-- If the graph displays speed against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line touches the x-axis. -- If the graph displays distance against time, then speed of zero is indicated wherever the graph-line is horizontal. -- If the graph displays acceleration (magnitude) against time, then the graph can tell you when speed is increasing or decreasing, but it doesn't show what the actual speed is.

On a graph what is indicated by x?
horizontial axis
How is a speed graph different from an acceleration graph?
A speed graph measures the distance devided over time. Acceleration graph measures the change in speed over time.
How does a graph showing speed differ from a graph showing acceleration?
Speed can be shown on a graph of position versus time, and acceleration can be shown on a graph of speed versus time.
What is the type of graph used to show the speed of an object?
speed graph
How do you calculate speed of a distance time graph?
Speed (in the radial direction) = slope of the graph.
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.
How can speed be determined from a graph of distance vs time?
Slope of the graph will give you speed.
