What does a horizontal line on a story graph represent?

Back

A horizontal line on a story graph indicates that the object is not moving; its distance from the starting point remains constant.

What does a steep slope on a story graph indicate?

Back

A steep slope on a story graph indicates a rapid change in distance, meaning the object is moving quickly.

What does a downward slope on a story graph represent?

Back

A downward slope on a story graph indicates that the object is moving back towards the starting point, decreasing its distance from it.

How can you determine if one object started ahead of another on a story graph?

Back

You can determine if one object started ahead of another by looking for a vertical shift in the starting point of the lines representing their distances.

What does it mean when a graph shows a section where the line is flat?

Back

A flat section on a graph indicates that the object is stationary during that time period.

In the context of story graphs, what does 'C to D' represent if the graph shows 'not moving'?

Back

The 'C to D' section represents a period where the object is stationary, meaning its distance from the starting point does not change.

What can you infer if a graph shows a gradual increase in distance over time?

Back

A gradual increase in distance over time suggests that the object is moving at a steady pace.

What is the significance of labeling sections on a story graph?

Back

Labeling sections on a story graph helps to identify different phases of movement, such as starting, stopping, or changing direction.

Front

How can you interpret the distance from school decreasing on a story graph?

Back

If the distance from school is decreasing, it indicates that the person is moving back towards the school.
