What else can I help you with?
Does the slope of the line on a speed time graph tells the speed?
No. The slope on a speed vs time graph tells the acceleration.
What does a straight line mean in a distance time graph?
Constant speed. Zero acceleration.
How does the speed versus time graph look for an object with constant acceleration?
A straight line.
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.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The graph you described is a speed-time plot. If the line is horizontal, that indicates no change in speed over time. In other words, there is no acceleration (acceleration is zero), since there is no change in speed.
In an acceleration graph showing speed versus time a straight line shows the acceleration is?
A graph that shows speed versus time is not an acceleration graph.The slope of the graph at any point is the acceleration at that time.A straight line shows that the acceleration is constant.
How can you use the graph of velocity versus time to estimate the acceleration of the ball?
The acceleration of the ball can be estimated by calculating the slope of the velocity versus time graph. If the graph is a straight line, the slope represents the acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration. If the graph is curved, the instantaneous acceleration can be estimated by finding the slope of the tangent line at a specific point on the curve.
How do you find acceleration of a speed time graph?
To find acceleration from a speed-time graph, you need to calculate the slope of the speed-time graph. The slope at any point on the speed-time graph represents the acceleration at that specific time. If the speed-time graph is linear, then the acceleration will be constant. If the speed-time graph is curved, you can find the acceleration by calculating the slope of the tangent line at a specific point.
What does a horizontal line mean in acceleration vs time graph?
A horizontal line on an acceleration vs. time graph indicates constant acceleration over time. This means that the object is experiencing a steady rate of change in velocity.
What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?
acceleration
How is speed and acceleration represented on a graph?
Speed is represented by the slope of a distance-time graph, where steeper slopes indicate faster speed. Acceleration is represented by the slope of a speed-time graph, where a steeper slope indicates a greater acceleration.
What is the meaning of each of the following features of a velocity-time graph the slope of the line?
The slope of a line on a velocity-time graph is acceleration.
Does the horizontal line on the velocity vs time graph indicate a constant and positive acceleration?
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.
The slope of a line on a speed-time graph represents?
Acceleration.
A distance time graph for acceleration is always a?
a horizontal line :)
Accelerating can be seen on a distance versus time graph true or false?
Indirectly, yes. If the graph is a straight line there is no acceleration, if the graph is not linear there is acceleration.
Is acceleration the slope of a line on a distance time graph?
No. The slope of the distance-time graph is the change in distance per unit of time - otherwise known as speed. Acceleration is the slope of the speed time graph.
