Lesson 4 focuses on the use of velocity versus time graphs to describe motion. As we will learn, the specific features of the motion of objects are demonstrated by the shape and the slope of the lines …

Learn the difference between distance, displacement, speed and velocity, and how to calculate distance, speed and acceleration.

Since acceleration is a function of time, the velocity-time graph will be a curve. Note: Since the acceleration continuously increases with time, the magnitude of the slope will also continuously …

Velocity-time graphs show how velocity changes over time, with the slope representing acceleration, and the area under the graph representing the distance travelled.

Learn how to interpret the motion of an object represented on a velocity vs. time graph.

Dec 1, 2025 · Explore the concept of velocity-time graphs and how they represent acceleration in sprinters and other moving objects, with examples and interactive elements.

A velocity-time graph shows how velocity changes over time. The sprinter’s velocity increases for the first 4 seconds of the race, it remains constant for the next 3 seconds, and it decreases during the …
