Question 43





Figure P2.43 represents part of the performance data of a car owned by a proud physics student. (a) Calculate the total distance traveled by computing the area under the red-brown graph line. (b) What distance does the car travel between the times t = 10 s and t = 40 s? (c) Draw a graph of its acceleration versus time between t = 0 and t = 50 s. (d) Write an equation for x as a function of time for each phase of the motion, represented by the segments 0a, ab, and bc.(e) What is the average velocity of the car between t = 0 and t = 50 s? where a = , b = and c =
