Does a horizontal line on a distance-time graph means the object is moving at a constant speed?
Yes, a horizontal line on a distance-time graph represents an object moving at a constant speed. The slope of the line on a distance-time graph represents the speed of the object, and if the line is horizontal, it means the object is moving at a constant speed as there is no change in distance over time.
Does a horizontal line on a velocity vs time graph mean an object has stopped?
Not necessarily. If the horizontal line is laying on top of the x-axis, then the speed is zero at any time, and the object isn't moving. But if the horizontal line is parallel to the x-axis, then the object is moving with constant speed.
Does the speed of a position time graph of an object gives the speed of the object?
No, the speed of an object can be found by calculating the slope of a position-time graph. The steeper the slope, the greater the speed of the object.
What does a horizontal line represent on a position vs time graph?
If time is along the horizontal axis, and speed up the vertical, then a horizontal line indicates that at all times the speed remains at a fixed value. Hence the object is travelling at a constant speed of v, where v is the height of the horizontal line.
What does the slope in a speed time graph mean?
The slope of a speed-time graph represents the acceleration of an object. A steeper positive slope indicates faster acceleration, while a negative slope indicates deceleration. A horizontal line indicates a constant speed with zero acceleration.
What does a horizontal line on a speed time graph represent?
That the object is moving at a constant speed
Can you tell from a velocity-time graph whether an object is stationary?
Yes, if the velocity-time graph shows a horizontal line at zero velocity, then the object is stationary. This would indicate that the object is not moving.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The straight horizontal line on the graph says: "Whatever time you look at, the speed is always the same". This is the graph of an object moving with constant speed.
Does a horizontal line on a distance-time graph means the object is moving at a constant speed?
Yes, a horizontal line on a distance-time graph represents an object moving at a constant speed. The slope of the line on a distance-time graph represents the speed of the object, and if the line is horizontal, it means the object is moving at a constant speed as there is no change in distance over time.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indacate?
that would indicate that the object is at rest (static object) :D
How does the distance versus time graph look for an object that is stopped?
You can use the steepness, or slope, of a line in a distance-time graph to determine the speed of an object if speed is constant. The slope of the line is calculated by dividing the change in distance by the change in time for that time interval.
How the speed - time graph of an object that is not moving?
If an object is not moving, its speed-time graph would be a horizontal line at the zero speed level. This is because the speed of the object is constant at zero, indicating that it is not experiencing any motion or changes in speed over time.
What is a speed graph?
A speed graph shows how an object's speed changes over time. The horizontal axis represents time, while the vertical axis represents speed. The slope of the line on the graph indicates the acceleration or deceleration of the object.
What is on the horizontal axis of a speed graph?
The independent variable, in this case time, is on the horizontal axis of a speed graph.
On a graph of distance versus time what is constant speed shown by?
If the line formed by the graph is straight, the speed is constant. A horizontal line would show the object as stationary.
When you graph the motion of an object you put on the horizontal axis and on the vertical axis speed time?
time, distance
Does a horizontal line on a velocity vs time graph mean an object has stopped?
Not necessarily. If the horizontal line is laying on top of the x-axis, then the speed is zero at any time, and the object isn't moving. But if the horizontal line is parallel to the x-axis, then the object is moving with constant speed.
