Question

speed graphs motion is the change in position compared to a reference point over time. constant speed ○ same __________ traveled within a given ________. ○ a ________ line shows more distance traveled in a given time. therefore, it shows faster ________. at rest distance distance distance time time time time is ________ but ________ doesnt change. no ________ slow down the line curves down and gets less ________. this shows a ________ in speed. *note: this graph does not represent slowing down. it represents returning to starting position. speed up the line curves up and gets ________.this shows an __________ in speed.

Explanation:

For constant - speed, equal distances are covered in equal time intervals. A steeper line on a distance - time graph indicates faster speed. When at rest, time passes but distance doesn't change. When slowing down on a distance - time graph, the line curves down and has a decreasing slope, showing a decrease in speed. When speeding up, the line curves up and has an increasing slope, indicating an increase in speed.

Answer:

CONSTANT SPEED: distance; time interval; steeper; speed
AT REST: passing; distance; distance traveled
SLOW DOWN: steep; decrease
SPEED UP: steeper; increase
