2.1.2 Distance & Speed Flashcards
1
Q
Distance-Time Graph
Decreasing Speed
A
If speed decreases than distance decreases in the same amount of time.
Line becomes less steep.

Q
Distance-Time Graph
Increasing Speed
A
If speed increases than distance increases in the same amount of time.
Line becomes steeper.

Q
What do we mean by instantaneous?
A
existing or measured at a particular instant.
7
Q
What do curved lines show on a Velocity-Time graph.
A
The object is accelerating or deaccelerating at a speed that is not constant.
