→About Velocity Time Graphs
: On a '''velocity-time graph''' the [[velocity]] is plotted on the [[y-axis]] and the [[time]] is plotted on the [[x-axis]].
: A '''velocity-time graph''' can be used to calculate the [[acceleration]] of an [[object]] or the [[distance]] travelled by the [[object]].
: The [[gradient]] of a '''velocity-time graph''' is the same as the [[acceleration]].: The [[area]] under the curve on a '''velocity-time graph''' is the [[distance]] travelled by an [[object]].
