Chapter 1-2

To determine how fast an object is moving on a Velocity-time graph I should...

• Look at the vertical axis for that time

• Determine the area between the graph & the x axis up to that time

• See whether the graph is above or below the x axis at that time

• Solve for the slope of the graph at that time

To determine an object's acceleration using a Velocity-time graph I should...

• Look at the vertical axis for that time

• Determine the area between the graph & the x axis up to that time

• See whether the graph is above or below the x axis at that time

• Solve for the slope of the graph at that time
