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.
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.)
On a graph, a horizontal line reprents no change in data.
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.
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.
distance = velocity x time so on the graph velocity is slope. If slope is zero (horizontal line) there is no motion
Yes, if the velocity-time graph shows a horizontal line at zero velocity, then the object is stationary. This would indicate that the object is not moving.
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
The slope of a position-time graph represents the velocity of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher velocity, while a flatter slope indicates a lower velocity. Positive slopes represent motion in one direction, negative slopes represent motion in the opposite direction, and a horizontal line represents an object at rest.
