v, (5) 8 = vt. In this type of motion the average velocity may be easilycalculated, since the velocity increases uniformly from v0 tovt; thus, (6) i = ^±^ = Uo+|by (4). This result may be represented by a diagram. To dothis, let the time be plotted as abscissa and the velocity asordinate (Fig. 15);… … Fig. 15. Multiplying this value of the average velocity by the timegives for the distance traversed (7) s = v0t + ift* * By the method of derivation it is evident that the valueof s is represented by the yarea between AB and theaxis in Fig. 15. If t be eliminated be-tween (4) and (7), (8)…
