Of course, the velocity graph should be continuous - that would make the middle velocity constant ... graphs for velocity and position that go along with that same acceleration graph above.

OK, let's do a simple experiment and use a graph to find a mathematical model. Constant ... lines to give position-time data. Again using the quadratic fit I can find the acceleration.

The velocity-time and acceleration-time graphs for common motions are shown below. For the constant positive velocity graphs and the constant positive acceleration graphs, the initial displacement ...

These graphs also show if the object is moving at a constant speed or accelerating, decelerating, or still. Acceleration is shown by a straight rising line. Deceleration is shown by a straight ...
