Velocity time graph

Cards (6)

  • The gradient of a velocity time graph shows the acceleration of the object.
  • If the object has a constant positive gradient then the object has a constant acceleration
  • If the object has a constant negative gradient then the object has a constant deceleration
  • Flat sections have a gradient of 0 meaning velocity is constant.
  • If the curve gets steeper, the gradient must be increasing
  • Velocity is the measurement of how fast an object moves at a particular direction
