Understanding Velocity vs Time Graphs for Horizontal Motion
Thanks a lot :) I got it now. I was mainly confused on what was happening below the x axis. But now I understand that when the line has a negative slope under the x axis, the object is moving backwards faster vs. positive slope, the object is slowing down!- Fated

Understanding Velocity vs Time Graphs for Horizontal Motion
What do you mean the value? The line's starting position is at 9seconds on the velocity of -1.0. It has a positive slope of 0.2 and stops at 12seconds at -0.4. So this line is under the 0 line. So if it is under the line, with a positive slope what does that mean?- Fated

Understanding Velocity vs Time Graphs for Horizontal Motion
Quick question about translating what's on the Velocity vs Time graph into what is actually happening to the object. A cart is traveling on a straight horizontal track. So I determined that east is positive direction. So, if the velocity vs time graph is showing a negative slope of -0.2 does...- Fated
