It is the downward gradient of the graph.
Acceleration is change in velocity per unit time(derivative of velocity with respect to time). If you have a graph or chart of velocity values vs time, then you can calculate (change in velocity) / (change in time). This is the slope of the graph at a specific point in time.Mass, along with acceleration determines force.
The Average Velocity on a position time graph or a velocity time graph.
Velocity is NOT the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the area under the acceleration vs. time graph. Velocity is the slope of a position vs. time graph, though. For you Calculus Junkies, v = the integral of acceleration with respect to time.
A negative slope on a velocity-time graph indicates a decreasing velocity over time, which means the object is slowing down. As time increases, the velocity decreases.
If an x-t graph is a position-time graph, velocity is the slope of the line on the graph.
It is the downward gradient of the graph.
A velocity time graph is still a velocity time graph - no matter the degree of detail that you look at it.

The area between the graph and the x-axis is the distance moved. If the velocity is constant the v vs t graph is a straight horizontal line. The shape of the area under the graph is a rectangle. For constant velocity, distance = V * time. Time is the x-axis and velocity is the y-axis. If the object is accelerating, the velocity is increasing at a constant rate. The graph is a line whose slope equals the acceleration. The shape of the graph is a triangle. The area under the graph is ½ * base * height. The base is time, and the height is the velocity. If the initial velocity is 0, the average velocity is final velocity ÷ 2. Distance = average velocity * time. Distance = (final velocity ÷ 2) * time, time is on the x-axis, and velocity is on the y-axis. (final velocity ÷ 2) * time = ½ time * final velocity ...½ base * height = ½ time * final velocity Area under graph = distance moved Most velocity graphs are horizontal lines or sloping lines.
take the slope of every change in the velocity time graph and plot it
Your acceleration vs. Time graph is the slope of your velocity vs. time graph
The Average Velocity on a position time graph or a velocity time graph.
The rate of change in velocity in given time. By Suraj Kumar
The product of velocity and time yields distance travelled if the velocity is constant for the time in question. If velocity is not constant, one must first calculate the average velocity over a given time period before multiplying it by the time involved.
A position time graph can show you velocity. As time changes, so does position, and the velocity of the object can be determined. For a speed time graph, you can derive acceleration. As time changes, so does velocity, and the acceleration of the object can be determined.If you are plotting velocity (speed) versus time, the slope is the acceleration.
Simply put, a velocity time graph is velocity (m/s) in the Y coordinate and time (s) in the X and a position time graph is distance (m) in the Y coordinate and time (s) in the X if you where to find the slope of a tangent on a distance time graph, it would give you the velocity whereas the slope on a velocity time graph would give you the acceleration.
