Interpreting Displacement-Time Graphs | Year 1 Mech | A Level Maths

Displacement-time graphs are a fundamental tool for visualising motion in a straight line. In this lesson you will learn how to read displacement and time from such a graph, interpret the gradient as velocity, use the language of kinematics including position, displacement and distance travelled, and link the shape of the graph to descriptions of motion. The skills developed here are essential for all later mechanics topics.
