Graphical Analysis of Motion – velocity vs time graph (v vs. t graph)

Part 1: Interpret the motion based on the velocity time graph.

v vs. t graph Direction of velocity Direction of Magnitude of

Motion (increases, acceleration acceleration
(+v or -v) decreases, or (+ or -) (zero, constant,
constant) inc., or dec.)
