What are the Distance
- Time
Graphs
for Constant Velocity and Acceleration?
The picture below
shows a distance - time graph
for an object with a constant
velocity.
The straight line shows an
object moving with constant velocity.
Compare this with the graph on the previous page and you
will see that the slope of the line
is
down rather than up.
This means that the object is
moving in the opposite direction.
The slope of the
line shows how
fast the object is moving.
What is the Distance
- Time
Graph for Acceleration?
The curve in the above graph
shows
that the objects velocity is
changing as time goes by.
Changing velocity is
called acceleration.
