Distance - Time Graphs.
You may be shown a graph like the
one below
and be asked to describe the
motion of the object.
In region A the object is moving with constant velocity.
In region B the object is at rest (not moving).
In region C the object is again
moving with constant velocity
but compared with region
A
(i) the object is moving more slowly
because the slope is less
steep
(ii) the object is moving in the opposite direction
because distance is decreasing as time
goes by.
