Read each question carefully and provide your best answer. Show all work for calculations.
1. What does the slope of a position-time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Displacement
Time
2. A horizontal line on a velocity-time graph indicates:
Increasing acceleration
Constant velocity
Decreasing velocity
Zero displacement
3. The area under a velocity-time graph represents the of an object.
4. An object undergoing constant acceleration will have a line on a velocity-time graph.
5. If a position-time graph shows a curved line, the object's velocity is constant.
True
False
6. A negative slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is slowing down.
True
False
7. Describe the motion of an object if its position-time graph is a straight line with a positive slope.
8. How can you determine the acceleration of an object from a velocity-time graph?
9. Sketch a position-time graph, a velocity-time graph, and an acceleration-time graph for an object that is initially at rest, then accelerates uniformly for a period, and finally moves at a constant velocity.
