What about comparing two moving objects at the same time?
Both the dashed and solid line show increasing
speed.
Both lines reach the same top speed, but the
solid one takes longer.
The dashed line shows a greater
acceleration.
Summary:
A speed - time graph shows us how the speed of a moving object changes with time.
The steeper the graph, the greater the acceleration.
•
A horizontal line means the object is moving at a constant speed.
•
A downward sloping line means the object is slowing down.
