- In a distance-time graph, the slope of the line represents the speed of the vehicle. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed.
- In the given graph, vehicle B has a steeper slope compared to vehicle A, which means vehicle B is moving faster.
- The relative speed of two vehicles can be determined by comparing the slopes of their respective lines on the distance-time graph.
- The distance-time graph allows us to visually compare the speeds of two vehicles by examining the steepness of their lines.
- The correct interpretation of the graph helps in understanding the motion and speed of the vehicles accurately.
Additional Information
- Uniform Motion: If the distance-time graph is a straight line, it indicates uniform motion, meaning the speed is constant.
- Non-uniform Motion: If the graph is a curve, it indicates non-uniform motion, meaning the speed is changing over time.
- Speed Calculation: The speed of a vehicle can be calculated by finding the slope of its line on the distance-time graph, which is the change in distance divided by the change in time.
