Acceleration, Velocity, and Displacement Graphs
![Three graphs with the x-axis labelled "Time (s)": the first labelled "Acceleration (cm/s^2)," the second labelled "Velocity (cm/s)," and the third labelled "Displacement (cm)."](https://d9-wret.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/assets/palladium/production/s3fs-public/styles/full_width/public/media/images/acceleration%20velocity%20displacement.gif?itok=CRkIpxtq)
