A horizontal line on a velocity vs. time graph represents constant velocity. This means that the object is moving at a steady speed without accelerating or decelerating. The height of the line indicates the magnitude of the velocity, while the horizontal nature indicates that this velocity remains unchanged over time.
as a horizontal straight line
The slope of a line on a position vs. time graph would represent the a velocity of the object being described.
On a graph, a horizontal line reprents no change in data.
The straight horizontal line would indicate constant speed.(NOT constant velocity. The velocity could very well be changing, but the graphdoesn't tell you anything about the direction of the motion, only that the speedis constant.)
If it is a horizontal straight line, it means the object is moving at constant velocity. If it is a sloped line, it means the object is accelerating.
horizontal
False. A horizontal line on a velocity vs. time graph indicates constant velocity, not constant acceleration. Positive acceleration would be represented by a diagonal line sloping upwards on a velocity vs. time graph.
as a horizontal straight line
If velocity is constant, the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph will be a straight line. The slope of this line will represent the constant velocity of the object.
No, a horizontal line on a velocity vs. time graph indicates a constant velocity, not acceleration. An acceleration would be represented by a non-zero slope on a velocity vs. time graph.
constant speed
A flat line would indicate a constant velocity, no change in speed.
distance = velocity x time so on the graph velocity is slope. If slope is zero (horizontal line) there is no motion
Not necessarily. If the horizontal line is laying on top of the x-axis, then the speed is zero at any time, and the object isn't moving. But if the horizontal line is parallel to the x-axis, then the object is moving with constant speed.
If the curve is horizontal, then the speed is constant. If that horizontal graph lies on the x-axis, then the constant speed is zero, and the object is stationary.
It means there is no velocity - it is at rest and nothing is moving. The slope of the line is velocity - a horizontal line is zero slope = zero velocity
