How would a graph of negative and positive acceleration differ?
This depends on what the graph represents. If it is a graph of velocity on the vertical and time on the horizontal, then if acceleration is at a constant rate, the graph will be a straight line with positive slope (pointing 'up'). If acceleration stops, then the graph will be a horizontal line (zero acceleration or deceleration). If it is deceleration (negative acceleration), then the graph will have negative slope (pointing down).
Is distance time graph for acceleration always a straight line?
no because it is possible the object moving make go backwards so the the line will go into the negatives on the graph
What is the difference between a curved line on a distance-time graph and a straight line?
A curved line represents changing speed - either acceleration or deceleration - while a straight line indicates that the speed is constant.
In a graph showing time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis What would a straight horizontal line indicate?
The line would indicate motion at a constant speed.
If a car is traveling at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour for 30 minutes what is the acceleration?
Constant speed (in a straight line) means there is no acceleration.Constant speed (in a straight line) means there is no acceleration.Constant speed (in a straight line) means there is no acceleration.Constant speed (in a straight line) means there is no acceleration.
How Would The Acceleration vs Time Graph Look?
The acceleration vs. time graph would show how an object's acceleration changes over time. A horizontal line at zero acceleration would indicate constant velocity. A straight line with a positive or negative slope would represent constant acceleration. A curved line would indicate changing acceleration.
In an acceleration graph showing speed versus time a straight line shows the acceleration is?
A graph that shows speed versus time is not an acceleration graph.The slope of the graph at any point is the acceleration at that time.A straight line shows that the acceleration is constant.
How can a position time graph show if an object has constant acceleration?
A position-time graph with a straight line indicates constant acceleration. The slope of the line represents the acceleration, which is constant if the slope remains the same throughout the graph. A steeper slope indicates a greater acceleration, while a shallower slope indicates a smaller acceleration.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on a vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
Constant speed ... zero acceleration.
Suppose you plot the distance traveled by an object at various times and you discover that the graph is not a straight line what does this indicate about the object acceleration?
If the graph of distance traveled vs. time is not a straight line, it indicates that the object's acceleration is not constant. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so a non-linear distance-time graph suggests that the object's velocity is changing at a non-constant rate, causing a curved graph.
How can you use the graph of velocity versus time to estimate the acceleration of the ball?
The acceleration of the ball can be estimated by calculating the slope of the velocity versus time graph. If the graph is a straight line, the slope represents the acceleration. The steeper the slope, the greater the acceleration. If the graph is curved, the instantaneous acceleration can be estimated by finding the slope of the tangent line at a specific point on the curve.
A straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate?
The straight horizontal line on a graph is referred to as the x-axis. The vertical line on a graph is the y-axis.
What does a horizontal line on a velocity time graph show for acceleration?
Any curved line will indicate a change in acceleration. Straight lines with slope indicate a steady velocity and straight lines with zero slope indicate a lack of motion.If the X axis (left to right) is for time and the Y axis (up and down) is for speed, it would curve up.
Accelerating can be seen on a distance versus time graph true or false?
Indirectly, yes. If the graph is a straight line there is no acceleration, if the graph is not linear there is acceleration.
If a graph shows time on the horizontal axis and speed on the vertical axis a straight horizontal line across the graph would indicate what?
The graph you described is a speed-time plot. If the line is horizontal, that indicates no change in speed over time. In other words, there is no acceleration (acceleration is zero), since there is no change in speed.
Does the horizontal line on the velocity vs time graph indicate a constant and positive acceleration?
No, a horizontal line on a velocity vs. time graph indicates a constant velocity, not acceleration. An acceleration would be represented by a non-zero slope on a velocity vs. time graph.
In speed-versus-time graph a straight line shows that acceleration is?
Constant.
