The speed of an object is its rate of displacement. Specifically, it is the rate of displacement over time or the first derivative of displacement with respect to time.
The answer is displacement.
average velocity is the displacement over time while instantaneous velocity refers to the velocity of an object at one point or at as pecific point of time. *displacement is the difference between the initial position and the final position of an object. (distance 2 - distance 1)
that is speed, or velocity if a direction is implied
Displacement over time, or how far an object has moved in a given time, is the definition of speed. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity has direction.
The answer is displacement.

Velocity is change in displacement over time.

Displacement over time is velocity - distance over time is speed.The reason is that:Displacement is a vector quantity (has a direction as well as a magnitude), whereas speed is a scalar quantity (has no direction, only magnitude).
Average Velocity is displacement over total time.
that is speed, or velocity if a direction is implied
Displacement over time, or how far an object has moved in a given time, is the definition of speed. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity has direction.
Yes, you see as Velocity = Displacement/Time, To get displacement by its self, we need to get the 1/time over to the other side. The only way to do this is to multiply both sides by Time/1 to cancel out time on the Displacement/Time side and to make it so Velocity is multiplied by time. So Time/1 x Velocity = Displacement/Time x Time/1. The time and the time on the right side of the equation cancel out to become onem and the new equation is Time x Velocity = Displacement. Try it on paper if it becomes to confusing reading my type. Hope this helps!
A displacement time graph is a graph that consists of an x and y axis using displacement, by time.
Basically, a net force causes an acceleration - a change in velocity. Over time, this must needs cause a displacement.
To get displacement from a displacement graph, just look at the Y- axis for the particular time (displacement versus time). For the displacement graph, the Y-axis is usually displacement.
