Question

Relationship between velocity and position

Answer 1

Explanation:

Both position and velocity are vector quantities. There exist a very close relation between position and its velocity because the velocity is the rate of change of the position with respect to time. When the the position remains constant, the corresponding velocity is zero, as there is no change in position and basically the object remains at rest. When the position changes to the positive side of the coordinate system or reference frame, the velocity is positive, when the position changes towards the negative side of the coordinate system, the velocity is negative.

Mathematically, velocity is the derivative of the position with respect to time and graphically the velocity represents the slope of the position graph at any given point of the graph.
