What does speed-time graph represent?
It represents the speed of a moving object at any time covered by the graph.
What does straight line on a distance time graph tell you about the speed of an object?
It tells you that the speed of the object is not changing. The speed is represented by the slope in a distance vs. time graph, if slope doesn't change, speed doesn't.
What does the slope of the graph indicate about the object's motion?
The answer will depend on whether the graph is a distance time graph or a speed time graph.The slope of a distance-time graph shows that speed of the object in the direction towards or away from the point of reference (usually the origin). It indicates absolutely nothing about its speed in any other direction. So, for example, an object could be rotating around the origin at the speed of light (the fastest possible) and the distance-time graph would show it being stationary bacause its distance from the origin is not changing!The slope of the speed-time graph indicated the acceleration of the object, again with the same qualification.
What does the slope of a speed vs time graph indicate an object's motion?
The slope of a speed vs time graph indicates an objects acceleration.
What does a speed time graph indicate about an object's motion?
A distance time graph would show the distance traveled.
