A graph that shows speed versus time is not an acceleration graph.
The slope of the graph at any point is the acceleration at that time.
A straight line shows that the acceleration is constant.
If the graph is a straight line, then the slope of the line is the average acceleration of the ball.
On a graph of speed versus time, where time is plotted along the horizontal (X) axis and speed along the vertical (Y) axis: -- constant speed (zero acceleration) produces a straight, horizontal line; -- constant acceleration produces a straight, sloped line; the slope of the line is equal to the acceleration; -- if the acceleration is positive, the line slopes up to the right (speed increases as time increases); -- if the acceleration is negative, the line slopes down to the right (speed decreases as time increases).
If a position versus time graph is parabolic, then:Speed versus time is a straight line.Acceleration (magnitude) vs time is a horizontal line, so the acceleration is constant.The graph of height/time for a stone or a baseballtossed upward is an inverted parabola.
In that case, the graph would be a straight line.In that case, the graph would be a straight line.In that case, the graph would be a straight line.In that case, the graph would be a straight line.
A position time graph can show you velocity. As time changes, so does position, and the velocity of the object can be determined. For a speed time graph, you can derive acceleration. As time changes, so does velocity, and the acceleration of the object can be determined.If you are plotting velocity (speed) versus time, the slope is the acceleration.
Speed can be shown on a graph of position versus time, and acceleration can be shown on a graph of speed versus time.
Indirectly, yes. If the graph is a straight line there is no acceleration, if the graph is not linear there is acceleration.
If the graph is a straight line, then the slope of the line is the average acceleration of the ball.
The position versus time graph is parabolic.
A straight line.
The graph is a straight line whose slope is the acceleration of gravity.
Acceleration is how fast you get up to speed.
A straight slanted slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object is moving with a constant acceleration.

Yes, acceleration is the slope of a velocity versus time graph.
