What does a downward sloping diagonal line mean in a velocity vs time graph?
This means your velocity is decreasing with time, or in other words, the object is slowing down.
What does slope mean in algebra?
Slope in algebra refers to the rate of change of a function at a given point. This can be used in physics, where on a graph that shows the change in velocity, the value of the slope is equal to the acceleration at that moment in time.
What does a stright diagonal line on a distance time graph mean?
It means that the speed of the object is constant.
Why is it not possible for any part of the distance-time graph of a body to be a straight-line segment parallel to the distance axis?
BecAuse that would mean it is going an infinite speed. The slope of a distance time graph is the objects velocity or speed. If there is a line parallel to the distance axis, there is a vertical line. The slope of a vertical line is infinite. It is not possible to go an infinite speed.
What does a gradual slope mean on a distance v time graph?
It means a slow speed.
