Answer;

-The acceleration

Step-by-step explanation;

-The shape of a velocity versus time graph reveals pertinent information about an object's acceleration.

-For example, if the acceleration is zero, then the velocity-time graph is a horizontal line (i.e., the slope is zero). If the acceleration is positive, then the line is an upward sloping line (i.e., the slope is positive).

- If the acceleration is negative, then the velocity-time graph is a downward sloping line (i.e., the slope is negative). If the acceleration is great, then the line slopes up steeply (i.e., the slope is great).
