Read each question carefully and provide your answers in the space provided. Some questions may require you to draw graphs or describe motion.
1. What does the slope of a position-time graph represent?
Acceleration
Velocity
Distance
Time
2. A horizontal line on a velocity-time graph indicates:
Increasing acceleration
Decreasing velocity
Constant velocity
No motion
3. The area under a velocity-time graph represents the of an object.
4. A curved line on a position-time graph indicates that the object is .
5. Describe the motion of an object that has a constant positive velocity.
6. How can you determine if an object is accelerating from a position-time graph?
7. Draw a position-time graph for an object that starts at rest, accelerates uniformly for 5 seconds, then moves at a constant velocity for 5 seconds, and finally decelerates uniformly to a stop in 5 seconds.
