it means that the object is gradually getting faster

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.
No, the slope on a position-time graph represents the object's velocity, not acceleration. Acceleration would be represented by the slope of the velocity-time graph.
The slope of a time vs distance graph represents the speed or velocity of an object. It is calculated as the change in distance divided by the change in time. A steeper slope indicates a greater speed.
When velocity is changing, the slope of the position versus time graph represents the velocity at that particular moment. The slope becomes steeper when velocity is increasing and shallower when velocity is decreasing. A horizontal line indicates zero velocity.
The slope of a distance-time graph represents the speed of an object. It is calculated as the ratio of the change in distance to the change in time. A steeper slope indicates a faster speed.
