Velocity-Time Graphs – Key things to remember: With speed on the y -axis and time on the x -axis, a speed-time graph tells us how someone/something’s speed has changed over a period of time. 1) The gradient of the line = Acceleration. 2) Negative gradient = Deceleration.
Speed-Time Graphs. A speed-time graph shows how the speed of a moving object varies with time. The red line represents an object with increasing speed. The green line represents an object with decreasing speed. Increasing and decreasing speed represented on a speed-time graph.
Speed-time graphs (or velocity-time graphs) graph an object’s movement over time. Time is plotted along the x-axis and is measured in a unit of time, usually seconds. Speed is plotted along the y-axis and is usually measured in meters per second (\text{m} / \text{s} or \text{ms}^{-1})
Here is the velocity-time graph of a car for 50 seconds. Work out the average acceleration during the 50 seconds. Give the units of your answer. Estimate the time during the 50 seconds when the instantaneous acceleration = the average acceleration You must show your working on the graph..... (2)..... (2) 6.
Velocity-time graph challenge. Draw a set of axes for a velocity-time graph in your jotter. In your neighbour’s jotter, neatly and using a ruler, draw in a simple journey involving at least two changes in acceleration.
The velocity-time graph below shows the run of a sprinter. (a) What was the sprinter’s maximum speed? (b) Use the graph to find the sprinter’s acceleration between 0 and 10 seconds.
