What else can I help you with?
How can speed be determined from a graph of distance vs time?
Slope of the graph will give you speed.
Why does speed distance divided by time give you only the average speed?
Because it does. :)
Can you give me an example of slope inclination?

Give me an example of average speed?
If I walk 4 kilometers in an hour, my average speed during that hour was 4 km/hour. My instantaneous speed may well have been faster at times, and slower at other times, 4 km/hour is only the average.
Why does the slope of a velocity time graph give you acceleration?
if there is a slope, the velocity is either increasing or decreasing. This is acceleration.
What does the slope of the distance time graph give?
The slope of a distance-time graph gives the speed of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, while a flatter slope indicates a lower speed.
What does the slope of a distnace-time graph give you?
It gives you the speed. (not the velocity)
How do you find the average speed from a velocity time graph?
To find the average speed from a velocity-time graph, calculate the total distance traveled and divide it by the total time taken. This will give you the average speed. Alternatively, you can find the slope of the secant line that connects the initial and final points on the graph to determine the average speed.
What information does the slope on a distance time graph give?
Speed

The slope at any point of a distance-time graph repersents what?
The slope of the line is equal to the velocity of the object. Since the slope of a line is determined as rise over run, the slope of this line would be meters over seconds. This is the unit for velocity, m/s.rise/run = meters/secondThe labels on the graph will give you much more information than you think.
When you know both the speed and direction of an object while it is in motion do you know the average speed of the object?
The average speed is the speed, regardless of the direction.ANSWER:No. You don't. In order to find average speed, you need other variables, either time or distance to calculate an average speed. You might only see a train going up a steep slope at 15 mph everyday and think that's the slowest train in the world. Not knowing that on the other side of the hill it reaches 90 mph on the downslope.
In what condition average velocity is equal to average speed give an example?
When an object is moving along a straight line at a variable speed, we can express the magnitude of the rate of motion in terms of average velocity.It is the same way as we calculate average speed.

What information does the slope of a velocity time graph provide?
The information given by the slope of ("on") a distance-time graph is the SPEED. The size ("magnitude") of the slope is the size of the speed and the units of the distance axis are divided by the units on the time axis to give the units of the speed ... so if your distance is in miles and time is in hours then your speed will be in miles per ("divided by") hours (mph)... but if distance is in metres and time is in seconds then the speed is in metre per second (m/s).

If I walk 4 kilometers in an hour, my average speed during that hour was 4 km/hour. My instantaneous speed may well have been faster at times, and slower at other times, 4 km/hour is only the average.
