- One drop of oil falls straight down onto the road from the engine of a moving car every 5 s. Figure OQ2.1 shows the pattern of the drops left behind on the pavement. What is the average speed of the car over this section of its motion?

The particle moves forward at speed 4 m/s for 3 seconds, then backward at 3 m/s for 2 seconds, then forward again at 1 m/s for 3 seconds. Draw a position vs. time graph for this motion. Draw a velocity vs. time graph for the same motion.arrow_forwardStarting at x = - 17 m at time t = 0 s, an object takes 17 s to travel 55 m in the +x direction at a constant velocity.

At time t = 0 you are walking in the positive x direction with a constant speed of 1 m/s. You maintain that speed for 6 s. Then, you decrease your speed uniformly to 0 over a 2 s interval.
