A graph of the instantaneous velocity of an object over a specified period of time Time is independent (x-axis) Velocity is dependent (y-axis) Remember, velocity details magnitude (how fast) and direction (which way)
Units for the slope of time vs. velocity graph (m/s)/s m/s 2 Slope of t vs. v graph tells instantaneous acceleration Straight lines on t vs. v graph = uniform (constant) acceleration
Slope of t vs. v graph = acceleration
Area Under t vs. v graph = displacement 16 m/s 4 s A = 32 m
Instantaneous Velocity Velocity of an object at a specific moment Average Velocity Avg velocity of an object over time Instantaneous Acceleration How much objects velocity is changing at a specific moment Displacement Change in position of an object over time
