Area Under Graph Velocity Time
The analysis of this simple motion illustrates the value of these two representations of motion - velocity-time graph and kinematic equations. To find the distance travelled look at the area under the graph. Velocity Time Graphs Concept Builder This Interactive Exercise Challenges The Learner To Identify The Velocity Time Graph S T Graphing Motion Graphs Velocity An airplane flying at a constant 270 ms 600 mph a sloth walking at a constant 04 ms 1 mph and a couch potato lying motionless in front of the. . The shape of the graph is a trapezium so the trapezium area formula could be used or the shape could be separated into a rectangle and two triangles. If the object is moving with an acceleration of 4 mss ie changing its velocity by 4 ms per second then the slope of the line will be 4 mss. It was learned earlier in Lesson 4 that the slope of the line on a velocity versus time graph is equal to the acceleration of the object. ...
