The tangent at a point on the position-time graph represents the instantaneous velocity.
1. The tangent is the instantaneous slope.
2. Rather than "average" velocity, the slope gives you "instantaneous" velocity. The average of the instantaneous gives you average velocity.
Velocity is the rate of change of the position of an objec
Velocity is the rate of change of position over time.
Velocity is the rate of change of position.
Velocity is the rate of change of position - i.e., the derivative of position with respect to time.Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity - i.e., the second derivative of position with respect to time.
The formula for velocity is ds/dt where s (which is a function of time) is the position vector of the object at time t, and d/dt represents the derivative with regard to time.The formula for average velocity is (final position vector - starting position vector)/time.
Velocity is an instantaneous measure. Mathematically, it is the limiting value of the change in the position vector divided by the change in time as the latter tends to zero. Over larger time periods, the average velocity is the total change in the position vector divided by the total change in time. If velocity is constant, the average velocity will be the same as the instantaneous velocity.
If you are talking about a position vs time graph, the slope gives the average velocity. Velocity is displacement/change in time. (Change in position is displacement). Position is on the y axis and time is on the x axis. The slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = change in position/change in time = average velocity.

Velocity is change in displacement over time.
change in position, also known as the integral of velocity or the second integral of acceleration
Average velocity is change in position (displacement) divided by the interval.
Velocity is the rate of change of position over time.
Velocity is the rate of change of position.
Velocity is the rate of change of position - i.e., the derivative of position with respect to time.Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity - i.e., the second derivative of position with respect to time.

The rate of change of velocity. (As velocity is the rate of change of position.)
The rate of change of position is the velocity. The velocity at a specific point in time is called the instantaneous velocity.
