Distance travelled from a velocity time graph

Suitable for GCSE Physics. See my other video for how to deal with curved graphs.

It took u just 3 mins to make me understand something that orelse took me a day... Thank u soo much

my dumbass is in a college engineering class watching this i’m cooked 😭

Very useful! My teacher took 1 hour to teach me this and somehow i forgot it right after! You just taught me how to do it in 3 minutes! Thank you so much!

Oh my god, Thank you so much. You are a lifesaver. I got this for homework and didnt understand a thing at all, My teacher takes 1 hour to explain it but makes it very confusing. But you did this in under 5 minutes and made it very clear. Thank you!

thank you so much, now i can ace that exam!

Basically

Know the area formula

Divide the shape of velocity time graph into shapes where the area can be found eg triangles, rectangle, square etc

Find out area of shapes by the 2 values like velocity and time

Add the areas to find the distance

Édit - i came here again after 6 months as my math finals had come and i had forgotten how to do this lol i helped myself

[Syd_wawi]

thank you so much i have a final in an hour and i didn’t understand this at all. thank YOU

Thank you sir, now I understand the graph behind trapezium. Thanks 😊

[tarunviegas]

All the teachers and resource sheets make it sound so complicated but it was this easy. Why don't they just say it this simple lmao.

Thank you so much but is it okay if you can add more videos of the VELOCITY TIME GRAPHS

[SkeletonXGamzzz]

Thx sir, btw that was a square not rectange😊

For people wondering, and you may need to correct me on this sir, you do 0.8/2 which is 0.4 and you multiply that by 10 to get 4m. Also, a question for you sir would be, would the displacement be -4m then for the last bit (if the distance travelled is 4 m)

THanks for making the video. It is really very helpful to me.

I am from Pakistan and this topic was bothering me and I was having a hard time because my paper is also tomorrow but since I watched your video I remembered the full detailed answer thank you very much sir

Good explanation small question without calculating each object if we do it as a trapezium how do u do it?

[DJack]

but what about the last that goes down?

[mohamedjaffar]

yo this dude is a legend we have the same pen and the black thing is the top is missing like mine
p.s i like taking it off and putting it in again

[Chunky]

Thank you! Have a test in an hour an a half and this video came in great. Question, for the decrease in speed at the end from 8 to almost 9, would the process still be the same? Thanks!

[Glowdits]

liked and subbed
nice vid helps understood the question :)

Why take area only to measure distance in this graph please reply
