What is plotted on a vertical line distance-time graph?
Typically distance is plotted on the y-axis of a distance-time graph.
What do distance time graphs show?
Distance time graph shows the distance an object has traveled with respect to time. Time is plotted on the horizontal axis and distance is plotted on the vertical axis. The slope of the graph at any particular point in time will be equal to the instantaneous velocity at that point in time.
Is plotted on the x-axis on a time distance graph?
Time is plotted on the HORIZONTAL axis. That may or may not be the x-axis. If I choose to call the distance X, then X will be plotted on the vertical axis!
What is a graph with time plotted on the x axis and distance plotted on the y axis called?
It could be a velocity graph or an acceleration graph. If the plot is a straight line it is constant velocity. If the plot is a curve it is acceleration.
True or false a distance time graph shows how speed changes with time?
False. A distance-time graph shows the relationship between distance traveled and time, indicating how far an object has moved over a specific period. To analyze how speed changes with time, one would need a speed-time graph, where the speed of the object is plotted against time. The slope of the distance-time graph represents speed, but it does not directly show changes in speed over time.
