What else can I help you with?
If a graph shows distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis and the speed is steadily increasing Will it be a straight diagonal line?
No, if the speed is steadily increasing, the graph will not show a straight diagonal line. Instead, it will show a curve that is sloping upwards, indicating acceleration. This is because as time progresses, the speed is increasing at a constant rate, resulting in a curved line on the graph. A straight diagonal line would indicate a constant speed over time.
Is it true that a straight diagonal line on a distance versus time graph indicates a constant speed?
Yes. The slope, or rate, is constant. The rate being represented is speed. If the slope is a negative constant, the object is losing distance (going towards) from the orgin at at a constant speed.
Why is the distance time graph a straight line for?
A straight line on a distance - time graph represents a "constant velocity".
What is the distance-time graph for constant speed?
straight line
What is distance -time graph for constant speed?
a sloped straight line

How is constant speed represented on a distance time motion graph?
On a distance-time graph, a constant speed is represented by a straight, diagonal line with a constant slope. This slope indicates that the object is covering the same distance for each unit of time, meaning its speed is consistent throughout the motion.
Does a straight line on a distance versus time grph indicate that an object is at rest?
No. It means that the object is going at a constant speed.
How can different constant speeds be shown on a distance-time graph?
On a distance-time graph, different constant speeds would be represented by straight lines which have different slopes. The steeper the line, the faster the speed. Each line would have a constant slope to indicate a constant speed.
Is it true a straight diagonal line on a distance versus time graph indicates constant speed?
The answer is TRUE because it is a straight line as the graph shows below. http://www.batesville.k12.in.us/physics/apphynet/Measurement/Images/d_vs_t2_graph.gif

What does an upward sloping diagonal line mean in position vs time graph?
It means that either the distance is measured from the starting-line and the object is moving forward, or else the distance is measured from the finish-line and the object is moving backwards, because the distance is growing as time goes on. If the upward sloping diagonal line is straight, it means the speed is constant. (not velocity)
Why is the distance time graph a straight line for?
A straight line on a distance - time graph represents a "constant velocity".
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.
A straight line on a distance time graph represents what type of speed?
A straight line on a distance-time graph represents a constant speed.
What is the distance-time graph for constant speed?
straight line
