Motion 3.1 Velocity vs. Time graphs

Velocity vs. Time graphs

Velocity vs. time graphs show the velocity of an object at any time. The time is always on the x-axis and the velocity is always on the y-axis. If the line has a slope of 0 on the graph that means that the object is traveling at a constant velocity, if the line has a positive slope that means that the object is travelling at a positive acceleration and if the line has a negative slope that means that the object is travelling at a negative acceleration. If the line is in the positive section of the graph the object is travelling in a positive direction if the line is in the negative section of the graph the object is travelling in a negative direction.

You can see in this velocity vs time graph that the object is travelling
at a constant velocity of 10 m/s in a positive direction.


You can see in this velocity vs time graph that the object is travelling
at a constant positive acceleration in a positive directio
