On a distance-time graph, a curve that becomes steeper with time indicates that the object is:
On a distance-time graph, a curve that becomes steeper with time indicates that the object is:
- At rest
- Moving with uniform speed
- Accelerating (speed increasing)
- Decelerating
Solution
Steeper slope means greater speed. If the curve gets steeper, speed is increasing, i.e. the object is accelerating.
