Matching Velocity Time Graph Scenarios

During section A of the graph (between 0s and 25s), the object is accelerating. Change in velocity in this time = 3 - 0 = 3m/s Time taken = 25 - 0 = 25s What is its acceleration?

• Acceleration = Change in velocity x time = 3 x 25 = 75m/s²

• Acceleration = Change in velocity / time = 3/25 = 0.12m/s²
