and acceleration = velocity change ÷ time. To find the distance travelled, look at the area under the graph. In the first 10 seconds this is the area of the triangle, ½ × 10 s × 40 m/s = 200 m.

They are afraid to embrace the power of the graph ... for the acceleration does not predict that the distance should be proportional to the time. According to our kinematic equation, distance ...

To calculate acceleration, start by measuring the time it takes to travel between the start and end of the journey. Calculate the velocity using the formula: velocity = distance/time. Then ...
