Can a distance versus time graph ever show a horizontal line?
if the speed is zero then the distance versus time line will be horizontal
Could any part of the speed line ever become perfectly vertical?
Assuming that the question refers to a speed-time line, the answer is no. It would require the object to be travelling at infinite speed and, to be accelerated to an infinite speed would require an infinite amount of energy.
Why is knowing how to write an equation of a line important?
Because if you ever want to graph that equation you need the actual equation itself to help you graph it.
What is a straight path that goes on for ever in two directions?
One direction.
How do you detect misleading graphs?
The most popular way misrepresenting data on graph is not starting with zero on the y axis (vertical axis). This can make very small differences look much greater than they are. For example a graph where the y axis starts at 2000 and goes to 2100 a small difference will look large on the graph. Another method is to miss data points on the x axis this is done to to show a trend that doesn't exist in reality. There is no real way of spotting data that is just made up of course except watch out for line graphs where the line exactly matches the data points. In the real world this hardly ever happens.
Can line on a position time graph ever be vertical?
you can do vertical graphs or data's it can be both ways
With regard to question16 above could any part of the speed line ever become perfectly vertical why or why not?
Oh honey, let me break it down for you. In a speed-time graph, the speed line can never be perfectly vertical because that would mean the speed is changing instantaneously, which is not physically possible. Speed is the rate of change of distance with respect to time, so a vertical line would imply an infinite speed, and last time I checked, we're not living in a Fast and Furious movie.
Can the graph of a function have a point on a vertical asymptote?
No. The fact that it is an asymptote implies that the value is never attained. The graph can me made to go as close as you like to the asymptote but it can ever ever take the asymptotic value.
How can you tell the difference between a speed and a velocity graph?
A speed graph shows the magnitude of the speed of an object over time without specifying the direction, while a velocity graph shows both the magnitude and direction of an object's velocity over time. Speed graphs only have positive values, while velocity graphs can have negative values to represent direction.
Can a distance versus time graph ever show a horizontal line?
if the speed is zero then the distance versus time line will be horizontal
With regard to question 16 above could any part of the speed line ever become perfectly verical?
with regard to question 16 above could any part of the speed line ever become perfectly vertical
If an object is at rest how do you graph it?
If an object is at rest, its position versus time graph would be a straight horizontal line at the position value where the object is located. The slope of this line would be zero, indicating no change in position over time.

Could any part of the speed line ever become perfectly vertical?
Assuming that the question refers to a speed-time line, the answer is no. It would require the object to be travelling at infinite speed and, to be accelerated to an infinite speed would require an infinite amount of energy.
Can the average speed ever equal the instantaneous speed?
When there is no acceleration or when there is constant acceleration. When either of these cases is present, the graph of velocity versus time will be linear. When there is linear velocity, the average velocity will equal the instantaneous velocity at any point on the graph.
Can your speed and velocity ever have the same magnitude?
Speed and velocity always have the same magnitude, becausespeed is the magnitude of velocity.The difference is that velocity has a direction but speed doesn't
Was Ellen degeneres ever straight?
no Ellen is not straight she is married to Porshia
