The video tutorial explains how to derive the position function from given acceleration data. It starts by discussing the need to find the velocity function through integration of the acceleration function. The tutorial then moves on to finding the particular solution by using initial conditions. After deriving the velocity function, the position function is obtained by integrating the velocity function. The tutorial concludes by solving for the time when the ball hits the ground and determining its velocity at that point.
