1 Ch. 5 Sec. 1 Distance-Time Graphs
Unit 2 Force & Motion Ch. 5 Sec. 1 Distance-Time Graphs

2 Distance-Time Graph Facts
distance is plotted on the y-axis (vertical) & time is on the x-axis (horizontal) the slope or steepness of the line indicates the speed (steeper = faster) graph shows position from starting point x-axis is the starting point or point of origin

3 Dissecting Distance-Time Graphs
Horizontal Line = Object NOT Moving

4 Dissecting Distance-Time Graphs
Straight Upward Sloped Line = Object Moving Away from Starting Point at Constant Speed

5 Dissecting Distance-Time Graphs
Straight Downward Sloped Line = Object Moving Towards Starting Point at Constant Speed

6 Dissecting Distance-Time Graphs
Line with Different Slopes = Object Changes Speed Steeper Line: Faster Speed

7 Dissecting Distance-Time Graphs
Curved Line = Object Speeding Up / Slowing Down

8 Distance-Time Graphs
