How do you find displacement in a velocity vs. time graph?

Asked by lillydavila14

Answer (3)

The area between the line and the x-axis is equal to the displacement.

To find displacement on a velocity vs. time graph, calculate the area under the graph between two points on the time axis. Sum the areas of geometric shapes to determine the object's displacement during that time interval. ;

Displacement in a velocity vs. time graph is found by calculating the area under the graph between two time points. This area can be determined by breaking it into simple geometric shapes and summing their areas. Note that areas below the time axis are considered negative, indicating displacement in the opposite direction.
