Areas under graph

« on: June 11, 2011, 07:17:51 pm »

Hi all,
The one thing that I have never bothered to learn is the area underneath graphs and what it corresponds to.
This seems to be coming a lot... and I was wondering if anyone has a summary of this for me

I know the basic x>v>a stuff and area underneath force vs time = impulse

thanks

I don't have a summary, but the area under the graph is pretty much the x axis units multiplied the y axis units.

eg velocity vs time

area = velocity * time = displacement

Similar can be thought of with Force vs Time etc.
