I'm trying to "animate" the change of distance traveled with respect to time. Here's a piece of code:

S1i[t_, V1i_] = t*V1i;
Manipulate[
  Plot[S1i[t, V1i], {t, 0, 10}],
  {t, 0, 10}]

But i just get a graph with a straight line, but when i try to manipulate t, nothing changes. After that i tried with manipulating V1i and i get the same problem.

I am new to Mathematica so I'm sorry if the question is too simple. Thank you in advance.

  • $\begingroup$ I had apparently forgot to put := when defining the function, so i did succeed to manipulate V1i, but i still stuck with t. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Manipulate[Plot[S1i[t, V1i], {t, 0, tmax}, PlotRange -> {{0, 10}, {0, 100}}, AxesLabel -> {"time", "distance"}], {{V1i, 5}, 0, 10, 0.1, Appearance -> "Labeled"}, {{tmax, 10}, 0.1, 10, 0.1, Appearance -> "Labeled"}] $\endgroup$
