Description

This video explains how a distance-time graph represents how the distance of an object changes over time. The y-axis represents distance travelled, against time on the x-axis. A horizontal line represents a stationary object while a straight sloped line represents a constant speed. The gradient of the line equals the change in distance over the change in time.
