I need help with qualitatively graphing velocity from a postion time graph
 
Physics news on Phys.org
v = ds/dt
the velocity is the slope of s-t graph
If the slope is zero, velocity is zero.
If slope is constant, velocity is constant
If slope is increasing, velocity is increaing, i.e. accelerating.
