The change in y is the distance the object has travelled
The change in x is the time the object was travelling
Speed equals distance divided by time, therefore the gradient of the graph is the same as the speed of the object

Momentum = Mass x VelocityMomentum = Mass x Velocity
p = m x vp = m x v
kgm/s = kg x m/skgm/s = kg x m/s
