Lesson outcome
I can take readings from displacement-time graphs to find distance, displacement, speed and velocity.
Show transcript
The velocity of an object is equal to the gradient of a displacement-time graph.
A direction in which velocity and displacement are measured needs to be chosen.
A negative gradient on a displacement-time graph (sloping downwards) represents velocity in the opposite direction.
A negative value for displacement represents a position ‘behind’ the starting position.
