Distance vs Time Graph
Slope Slope = rise/run Slope = Dy/Dx
Slope On a distance vs time graph: Slope = Dd/Dt
Slope Slope = Dd/Dt Slope = velocity
Average Velocity v = Dd/Dt v = d1 – d0 t1 – t0
Displacement df = di + vti d = di + vt

Acceleration a = Dv/Dt a = vf - vi tf - ti
Velocity v = v0 + at vf = vi + at
Displacement d = di + vit + ½ at2
Displacement df = di + vit + ½ at2
v2 = vi2 + 2 a(df – di) v2 = vi2 + 2ad
vf2 = vi2 + 2ad
v = v0 + at d = d0 + v0t + ½ at2 v2 = v02 + 2ad
v = v0 + at vf = vi + at
d = d0 + v0t + ½ at2 df = di + vit + ½ at2
df = di + vit + ½ at2 d = vit + ½ at2
v2 = v02 + 2ad vf2 = vi2 + 2ad
vf = vi + at d = vit + ½ at2 vf2 = vi2+ 2ad
