Carefully read each question and analyze the provided graphs to determine the correct answers. Show all your work for short answer questions.
1. What does the slope of a distance-time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Time
Distance
2. A horizontal line on a distance-time graph indicates that the object is:
Moving at a constant speed
Accelerating
At rest
Decelerating
Use the distance-time graph below to answer the following questions.
1. Describe the motion of the object between 0 and 10 seconds.
2. Calculate the speed of the object between 10 and 20 seconds.
3. What is the total distance traveled by the object after 50 seconds?
1. A steeper slope on a distance-time graph indicates a higher .
2. If a distance-time graph shows a curved line, the object is undergoing .
3. The area under a distance-time graph does NOT represent .
1. A distance-time graph can show an object moving backward in time.
True
False
2. Constant velocity is represented by a straight line on a distance-time graph.
True
False
Draw a distance-time graph for a car that travels 100 km in 2 hours, then stops for 1 hour, and then travels another 50 km in 1 hour in the same direction.
1. What is the average speed of the car for the entire journey?
