Graphs of Motion

If the velocity-time graph has the shape AMB, what would be the shape of the corresponding acceleration-time graph?

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. aa = slope of the vv-tt graph.
  2. A to M: straight line with negative slope, so aa is a negative constant.
  3. M to B: straight line with positive slope, so aa is a positive constant.
  4. So aa-tt is a negative step that jumps to a positive step at M. So the answer is (c).
