Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

A	distance
B	time
C	speed
D	displacement

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -In a distance-time graph, the slope or gradient of the line is equal to the speed of the object. The steeper the line (and the greater the gradient) the faster the object is moving.

Detailed explanation-2: -On a distance-time graph, a sloping line indicates that the object is moving. The slope or gradient of the line in a distance-time graph equals the speed of the object. The faster the object moves, the steeper the line (and the greater the gradient).

Detailed explanation-3: -The slope of the line in a distance-time graph equals the object’s speed. The slope increases as the object move faster.

Detailed explanation-4: -(i) The slope of distance-time graph represents speed of the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -So the slope of the distance-time graph gives us speed.
