Time Squared?

Post by JoeyLines »

In on of my projects it said, I must have a table with Average Distance on the y-axis. And Time (Squared) on the x-axis. And I don't understand what it would be like if it was Time Squared.

Hi JoeyLines,
From the quick research I did, it looks like this type of graph is used to primarily shows rate of acceleration.
Try the search term "kinematic graphs for acceleration time squared" in google and I think you will find more results.

This one looked pretty promising:

Good Luck and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help!
