basic physics homework question
what is the acceleration graph supposed to look like if velocity graph looks like this? http://imgur.com/qipdqCh im almost positive this answer is this http://imgur.com/sR04Oze but i want to double check.

If you know differentiation yet, essentially your position graph is f(x), your velocity graph is f'(x), and your acceleration graph is f''(x). So, if your velocity graph looks like x^2, differentiate that and you get 2x. So your acceleration graph is y=2x.

sorry, but can u provide me short proof or evidence? It doesnt have to be grammatically correct, I just want to know that my reasoning is correct, not just guessing. Im assuming it is because the slope of velocity is negative until 0, then it becomes positive.
correct
