A line sloping upwards in a distance graph indicates that the object is moving away from the starting point, and the distance from that point is increasing over time. The steeper the slope, the faster the object is moving. If the line is straight, the speed is constant; if it curves, the speed may be changing.
What else can I help you with?
What does a steep straight line sloping upwards on a distance time graph indicate?
It means that as time goes on, the distance increases quickly.
What is a line sloping upwards on a speed time graph tell us?
The object is accelerating
What does a line that is sloping upwards on a speed time graph shows us?
That the object being studied is accelerating in the radial direction.
How do you graph y greater than -x?
The graph of y > - x is an area, firstly draw the line y = -x which is a line sloping diagonally upwards to the left at 45o and the area where y > -x is the area above the line
What is a sloping straight line on a distance time graph?
An upward sloping straight line indicates that the object being studied is moving away from the origin and that the component of its velocity in the radial direction is a constant. A downward sloping line indicates it is moving towards the origin. However, neither line says anything about the transverse component of its motion.
What does a steep straight line sloping upwards on a distance time graph indicate?
It means that as time goes on, the distance increases quickly.
What does a straight line sloping upwards on a position-time graph indicate about velocity?
A straight line sloping upwards on a position-time graph indicates that the object is moving with a constant positive velocity. The slope of the line represents the velocity of the object.
What is a line sloping upwards on a speed time graph tell us?
The object is accelerating
What does it mean when there is a curved line going upwards on a graph?
When there is a curved line going upwards on a graph it means the distance is increasing
What does a line that is sloping upwards on a speed time graph shows us?
That the object being studied is accelerating in the radial direction.
Does the graph represent a proportional or non-proportional liner relationship How do you know?
If the graph is a straight line through the origin, sloping upwards to the right, then it is a proportional linear relationship.
How do you graph y greater than -x?
The graph of y > - x is an area, firstly draw the line y = -x which is a line sloping diagonally upwards to the left at 45o and the area where y > -x is the area above the line
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)
How does the graph of velocity vs. time look for something with a constant positive acceleration?
An upward sloping straight line.
What does a position vs time graph showing positive acceleration look like?
A position vs. time graph showing positive acceleration would be a straight line sloping upwards from left to right.
What is the graph of increasing acceleration?
The graph of increasing acceleration would be a straight line sloping upwards when plotted against time. This indicates that the object's velocity is increasing at a constant rate.
Is a horizontal line on the velocity vs. time graph indicates a constant positive acceleration ture or false?
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.
