Time is typically placed along the horizontal axis of a motion graph because it provides a clear and intuitive framework for analyzing motion over intervals. This orientation allows us to track changes in position, velocity, or acceleration as they occur over time, making it easier to understand the dynamics of the motion. Additionally, time is a continuous variable that progresses in one direction, which aligns well with the concept of chronological events in motion analysis.
What else can I help you with?
For motion along a straight line a horizontal line on a speed over time graph indicates graph indicates that what is zero?
For motion at constant speed along a straight line, the acceleration is zero.
What is horizontal line in a speed graph?
Assuming it is a spped v/s time graph, a horizontal line represents motion at a constant speed.
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
Where on the graph would I put the independent variable?
Normally on the horizontal x axis
Vertical line along the left side of the graph and the horizontal line along the bottom?
These are the axes.
For motion along a straight line a horizontal line on a speed over time graph indicates graph indicates that what is zero?
For motion at constant speed along a straight line, the acceleration is zero.
In a bar graph which side is the horizontal scale on?
The horizontal scale typically runs along the bottom of the graph.
What is horizontal line in a speed graph?
Assuming it is a spped v/s time graph, a horizontal line represents motion at a constant speed.
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal axis?
In simple cases, you would put time on the horizontal axis.
When constructing a graph where is x labeled?
Normally x is the horizontal axis and y is the vertical axis
How would the line on a motion graph look like if an object is not moving?
horizontal.
Where on the graph would I put the independent variable?
Normally on the horizontal x axis
How do you know there is no motion on a distance time-graph?
distance = velocity x time so on the graph velocity is slope. If slope is zero (horizontal line) there is no motion
How do you tell form a distance-time graph when an object is at rest?
The graph is parallel to the time axis, normally the horizontal axis.
Vertical line along the left side of the graph and the horizontal line along the bottom?
These are the axes.
When plotting data on a graph showing distance verus time what would a horizontal line indicate?
time is normally the horizontal line
