1

Velocity-Time Graph

A graph that shows how velocity changes over time.

2

Gradient of Velocity-Time Graph

Represents the acceleration of the object.

3

Horizontal Line on Velocity-Time Graph

Indicates constant velocity (no acceleration).

4

Area Under Velocity-Time Graph

Represents the distance travelled by the object.

5

Steeper Gradient on Velocity-Time Graph

Indicates greater acceleration or deceleration.

6

Negative Gradient on Velocity-Time Graph

Represents deceleration (slowing down).

7

Zero Gradient on Velocity-Time Graph

Indicates no change in velocity (constant speed).

8

Curved Line on Velocity-Time Graph

Represents changing acceleration (non-uniform acceleration).

9

Distance from Velocity-Time Graph

Calculate by finding the total area under the graph.

10

Units for Velocity-Time Graph

Velocity is measured in m/s, time in seconds, and area (distance) in metres.
