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

Show answer and solution
Answer: (c)
- = slope of the - graph.
- A to M: straight line with negative slope, so is a negative constant.
- M to B: straight line with positive slope, so is a positive constant.
- So - is a negative step that jumps to a positive step at M. So the answer is (c).
