How would you describe the slope of a graph showing fast speed?
Maria053097
If it is distance from a point versus time, with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis, it would show a steep vertical climb on the graph. The steeper vertical change, the faster, but never completely vertical. Large "rise" (distance) over short "run" (time). With 0 acceleration, the graph is a straight line.

How would you describe the slope of a graph showing slow speed?
Im guessing that this is a distance over time graph. if so, the gradient of the line of best fit would have a low value. (not be very steep)
What information does the slope of a speed time graph provide?
The slope of a speed/time graph at any point is the acceleration at that instant.
What does the slope of a speed-time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
What does slope of speed time graph indicates?
The slope of the graph of speed vs time at each point isthe magnitude of the acceleration at that point in time.
What does a line with a negative slope indicate on a speed-time graph?
Negative slope on a speed/time graph indicates decreasing speed. (Some call it "deceleration", although I wish they wouldn't.)
How would you describe the slope of a graph showing changing speed?
The angle of the graphed slope changes with changes in speed.
How would you describe the slope of the graph showing slow speed?
Im guessing that this is a distance over time graph. if so, the gradient of the line of best fit would have a low value. (not be very steep)

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.
In a graph speed versus time what is the meaning of the slope?
The slope of the speed-vs-time graph is the magnitude of acceleration.
Does the slope of a distance-graph give average speed?
A graph requires two numerical variables before it can have a meaningful slope. A distance-graph has only one variable so it does ot have a slope in any meaningful way. For eaxmple, you could have a graph showing the distances of varoius places from, say London.
A car distance time graph is a straight line with a steep slope. How would you describe the car's speed?
If the slope is 'uphill' then the car is going faster
What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?
acceleration
How is a graph showing speed different from a graph showing acceleration?
Acceleration is how fast you get up to speed.
What information does the slope of a speed time graph provide?
The slope of a speed/time graph at any point is the acceleration at that instant.
How does a graph showing speed differ from a graph showing acceleration?
Speed can be shown on a graph of position versus time, and acceleration can be shown on a graph of speed versus time.
What does slope of a speed time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
