what is the slope under acceleration time graph

F = ( m ) ( a )

a = ( 1/ m ) ( F )

da/dt = ( 1 / m ) ( dF/dt ) <---------------------------------------…

The slope of the acceleration versus time graph equals rate of change of the force producing
the acceleration with respect to time.
The rate of change of acceleration (ie. the slope of an acceleration-time graph) is the 'jerk'. It is the third derivative of displacement.
