-- Pick two points on the graph.
-- Find the difference in time between the two points.
-- Find the difference in displacement between the same two points.
-- (Difference in displacement) divided by (difference in time) is the average Speed .
You can't tell anything about velocity from the graph except its magnitude, because
the graph displays no information regarding the direction of motion.

What equals the displacement on a velocity-time graph?
Displacement is the area under the v-t graph.
What is the condition of the position-time graph when the velocity-time graph passes through zero?
As, in the velocity-time graph, curves passes through zero means 'when time is zero velocity is zero'. Velocity is time derivative of displacement. So displacement is maximum or minimum when time is zero in position-time graph.
How do you find the average velocity on a graph?
The answer depends on what variables the graph shows.
The slope of a position- time graph?
It is the average velocity.
What is the shape of a displacement-time graph for an object that is constantly speeding up?
If the Object is falling at a constant velocity the shape of the graph would be linear. If the object is falling at a changing velocity (Accelerating) the shape of the graph would be exponential- "J' Shape.
