Velocity and Acceleration in Rectilinear Motion
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
A black particle moves along the 
axis following 
, where 
is time. You can see its location and whether the velocity or acceleration changes sign. (We use 
to show the path along the 
axis without overlapping.)
