How can you use the graph of velocity versus time to estimate the acceleration of the ball?

Answer: acceleration = slope graph velocity vs time

Explanation: if you have the graph of velocity vs time , the slope of that graph equals the acceleration of our object assuming constant acceleration...but remenber por a real object is really hard to keep constant acceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity vs time graph is used to find the acceleration of an object. The slope of a graph is given by :


m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Also, the rate of change of velocity is called the acceleration of an ball.

So, the slope of velocity time graph is used to estimate the acceleration of the ball.
