What does a line slanting up from left to right represent on a acceleration time graph?
A straight line with a gradient > 0 represents a constant rate of acceleration.
What is the nature of distance time graph for the motion of an object moving with a changing speed?
An incline represents acceleration, a straight line represents a constant speed and a decline represents slowing down.
Is your speed is constant if you are traveling in a straight line with an acceleration of zero?
If your acceleration is zero, then yes, you are traveling at a constant speed. The path does not matter. Acceleration measures the change in velocity, so an acceleration of zero means that there is zero change in velocity and therefore the speed is constant.
How is an object moving if a slanted straight line on a speed versus time graph represents its motion?
A straight slanted slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving with a constant acceleration.
What is the difference between a curved line on a distance-time graph and a straight line?
A curved line represents changing speed - either acceleration or deceleration - while a straight line indicates that the speed is constant.
When constructing a hexagon what shape is constructed first?
A straight line.A straight line.A straight line.A straight line.
What is the acceleration of car that travels in a straight line at constant speed?
Straight line at a constant speed = no acceleration
How would a graph of negative and positive acceleration differ?
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).
What is an angle called that measures 180 degrees?
An angle that measures 180 degrees is a straight angle, or straight line.Line.
In an acceleration graph showing speed versus time a straight line shows the acceleration is?
A graph that shows speed versus time is not an acceleration graph.The slope of the graph at any point is the acceleration at that time.A straight line shows that the acceleration is constant.
When the acceleration is not in a straight line on a graph what does this indicate?
That the force that causes the acceleration is not constant.
Does a particle moving in a straight line have acceleration?
A particle moving in a straight line may or may not have acceleration. Acceleration is adifferent phenomenon altogether. the rate of change of velocity is acceleration, a particle can move in a straight line with a constant velocity thus having no acceleration & it can also move with increasing or decreasing velocities thereby accelerating or deaccelerating.
