Mass * Velocity, mv, is the formula for momentum.

Extended:

This article goes over how E=mv was derived, and experimental evidence led to

E=mv^2

While E=mv^2 does match the data, there is no intuition for why the first

equation is wrong...this article gives some ideas and may peak someones

Mass times velocity is momentum. It is a physical quantity that describes the motion of an object and is given by the product of mass and velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.

It is a line graph in which the horizontal axis represents time and the vertical graph represents the velocity of an object in a specific direction. The direction is usually radial: away from (positive) or towards (negative) from a fixed point of reference. No account is taken of motion in a transverse direction.

The integral of the velocity is the distance.

Distance in the same direction as the velocity is measured.

That's a graph in which one of the axes contains time, and another, the velocity. Usually that would show how velocity changes over time.
