EQUATION FOR VELOCITY-TIME RELATION or , First equation of Motion by Graphical method.

EQUATION FOR VELOCITY-TIME RELATION

Consider the velocity-time graph of an object that moves under uniform acceleration as shown in the following Fig., but now with u ≠ 0). From this graph, you can see that initial velocity of the object is u (at point A) and then it increases to v (at point B) in time t. The velocity changes at a uniform rate a. , the perpendicular lines BC and BE are drawn from point B on the time and the velocity axes respectively, so that the initial velocity is represented by OA, the final velocity is represented by BC and the time interval t is represented by OC. BD = BC – CD, represents the change in velocity in time interval t.
