| Velocity-Time Graph |
 |
| The variation of velocity with time can be represented graphically to calculate acceleration exactly like we calculated speed from distance-time graph. |
| |
| Let us now plot a velocity-time (v - t) graph for the following data. |
| |
 |
| |
Take time along x-axis and velocity along y-axis. |
| |
 |
| |
Analyse the given data and make a proper choice of scale for x and y axes. |
| |
 |
| |
Plot the given points. |
| |
 |
| |
Join the points |
| |
 |
| |
Consider any two points A and B on the straight-line graph. |
| |
 |
| |
Draw perpendiculars from A and B to x and y-axes. |
| |
 |
| |
Join A to C, ACB forms a right-angled triangle. |
