In a distance-time graph the slope of is the ratio of time to distance?
no it's the ratio of distance to time (ie speed)
What is the slope in a distance time graph used for?
The slope indicates speed (magnitude of velocity). For instance, if time is plotted on the X axis and distance on the Y axis, then the steeper the slope, the higher the speed. That is to say that more distance is covered in less time - and, of course, vice versa for a lower slope.
The slope at any point of a distance-time graph repersents what?
The slope of the line is equal to the velocity of the object. Since the slope of a line is determined as rise over run, the slope of this line would be meters over seconds. This is the unit for velocity, m/s.rise/run = meters/secondThe labels on the graph will give you much more information than you think.
What does the slope of distance versus time graph represent physically?
The slope of a distance versus time graph represents the speed or velocity of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, while a gentler slope indicates a slower speed. If the slope is negative, it means the object is moving in the opposite direction.
Where is acceleration represented on a distance verses time squared graph?
In general, nowhere, because acceleration is the second derivative of distance with respect to time. However, in the special case of a constant acceleration, the acceleration will be twice the slope of the line, since distance = 0.5 * time squared.
The slope of a line on a distance time graph is?
Equal to the acceleration of the object that is moving through distance in time. * * * * * No. The slope of the distance-time graph is the change in distance per unit of time - otherwise known as speed.
What does the slope of the distance time graph represent?
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
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.
What does a distance time graph show?
A distance-time graph shows the movement of an object with respect to time. The average slope between any two points on the graph is equal to the average velocity of the object between those two points. The instantaneous slope (or derivative) at a point on the graph is equal to the instantaneous velocity of the object at that point.
What motion does a steep slope on a distance time graph show?
Steep slope on a distance/time graph indicates high speed.
What is the slope of a line on distance time graph?
acceleration
What info does the slope of a lone indicate on a distance verses time graph?
On a distance/time graph, the slope of the line is the speed. (Magnitude of velocity.)
What kind of graph shows an object's speed?
Speed = distance / time A line graph with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis could be used to determine speed. The speed would equal the slope of the line. Alternatively, a line graph with distance/time on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis would show speed. The acceleration would equal the slope of the line.
What would the distance vs time graph look like for an object at a constant speed?
At constant speed, the distance/time graph is a straight line, whose slope is equal to the speed.
What is the slope in the distance time graph when the body is at rest?
the slope of distance time graph gives us velocity but when the body is at rest it will be zero
What is the nature of the distance time graph for uniform motion of an object?
The distance-time graph for uniform motion of an object is a straight line with a constant slope. This indicates that the object is covering equal distances in equal time intervals, showing a constant speed.
In a distance-time graph the slope of is the ratio of time to distance?
no it's the ratio of distance to time (ie speed)
