Distance-Time Graphs Quiz

How can you determine the speed of an object using a distance-time graph?

• Speed = Distance × Time

• Speed = Distance /Time

• Speed = Time / Distance

• Speed = Distance + Time

What does a steeper line over time on a distance-time graph indicate about an object's motion?

• The object is moving at a constant speed

• The object is accelerating

• The object is decelerating

• The object is stationary

What does this distance-time graph indicate about the object's movement?

• The object moved extremely fast, away from start

• The object moved extremely fast, back to start

• This is an impossible graph as it shows an object "teleporting" to a distant place instantaneously

• This is an impossible graph as it shows an object not moving at all.
