This is out of mere interest, though I'm having trouble figuring it out. Note, I set up this problem myself.
Say I want to graph the function of velocity v at any given time t influenced by an acceleration a.
Given
a = 1 m/s^2
Find
velocity of any given time and represent it in a graph
?
The way I tried to solve this was by putting time t as the input (x) and velocity v as the output f(x).
I used the equation ( V final = at + v intial ) to find the velocity at any given point in time. But I found a big discrepancy because I need the previous output for the next output.
My table of functions looked something like this:
x | f(x)
--------
1 | 1
2 | 3
3 | 6
4 | 10
10| ?
