The slope of the line on a graph of position vs. time is a representation of the speed.

When the speed increases, its representation on the graph increases, otherwise it

wouldn't be called a "representation".

The appearance of a person's hair-do in a photograph is a representation of the length of his hair.

If his hair gets longer, then it appears longer in the snapshot. But you wouldn't ask (I hope) ...

"Why does his hair get longer when it looks longer in the picture?"

Does wave speed increase as gravity increases?

yes,wave speed will increase as gravity increases.


If speed increases and time remains the same what happens to distance?

By increasing speed over a fixed period of time, you increase the distance you travel in that period of time. If you drive 20 mph for an hour, you go 20 miles. If you drive 30 mph for that same hour, you go 30 miles. Just like you knew you would.


Does the carrying capacity increase as a stream's slope and discharge increases?

true


Why does the velocity of the river increases downstream?

It won't increase BECAUSE it goes downstream. Rather, the speed of the river depends on other factors, such as how narrow the riverbed is, or on the slope.


What is a negative slope?

Negative Slope can be your speed, position, and/or acceleration, as long as you X increases but your Y decreases.


Does the speed of a wave increases as a wavelength increase?

the frequenzy increases, the speed of light is constant


What factor will increase the speed of a sound wave in the air?

Speed of sound would increase as the temperature of the air increases Speed of sound increases as humidity of air increases Speed of sound is affected by the density of the air. As density increases velocity of sound decreases


How does aircraft drag increase with speed?

Drag increases by the square of velocity increase, for example, tripling speed increases drag by a factor of nine!


Which change will most likely increase the velocity of the river?

More current..so you would have to get some sort of a perpeller thingy..something like that. A greater gradient of the riverbed and rainfall can both contribute to increased speeds.


How does slopevolume of flow and stream bed shape affect a river's speed?

If a rivers slope increases so does water speed. And as more water flows through a river speed also increases due to the volume of flow. As for the stream bed shape , friction affects river speed when the water is deep. Hope i helped!


How does soil erosion affect the people and the environment?

other soils have a poor resistance to erosion. A slope can increase the affects of erosion, obviously, because it increases speed, and destruction of the runoff and sediment.


If an object accelerates in the same direction in which it is moving how is its speed affected?

The speed of the object will increase.
