A displacement versus time graph shows how an object's position changes over time. It can provide information about the object's speed, direction of motion, and whether it is accelerating or decelerating. The slope of the graph represents the object's velocity.

Displacement is a vector, which means that at some point in time an object was displaced from its original origin. Velocity is a vector, which records the rate of change of a displaced object, typically on a time graph.

The graph is plotted on a coordinate plane in which time is measured along the horizontal axis. The origin is t[usually] he reference position of the object at time 0. For any point in time, the graph is a plot of the distance of the object from the origin at that time - measured only in the radial direction.

The plot is incapable of showing any motion in a transverse direction. As a result, the plot for a stationery object is the same as one for an object rotating around the origin at varying speeds!

Zero acceleration and constant velocity describe this.

If the constant velocity is in a positive direction, the slope of a displacement-time graph will be a straight line with a positive slope, and the slope of the line will be the velocity.
