14. Velocity-time graphs for UALM


We know that the position-time graph for a uniformly accelerated linear motion is a straight inclined line.

Remember that UALM has constant acceleration, the value of the velocity changes at the same rate.

v = vi + (a × t)

Velocity is directly proportional to time.

We can calculate the slope of this straight line


The slope of a velocity-time graph gives information about an object´s acceleration.

Equation for this movement:
