Position-Time-Graph for
Constant Speed & Changing
Speed
• A position-time graph
shows how far something
travels over a period of
time.
Situation No. 1

Does the man change his speed while walking?

YES NO
Situation No. 1

Does the man change his speed while walking?

NO
He is constantly moving with the same speed towards East.
Let’s put the data into a
table:
Constant speed positive

Situation No. 2 Let’s Try!
Let’s graph a car moving to the right, considering its direction in the diagram below;

Situation No. 3 – Stationary Motion
When an object is stationary (not moving), the line on the graph is
horizontal. Consider a man standing at 10-kilometer position for
five (5) seconds. Let us put the data into a table.
