Average Velocity for Certain Objects Moving
1) The position versus time for a certain object moving along the x axis is shown. The objects initial position is -3m.
The graph points since I cannot draw it start at
(0,-3),(2,9),(3,6),(4,4),(5,4),(6,0),(7,-4) and (9,0).
a) Find the average velocity in the time interval 0s to 2s in m/s.
b) Find the average velocity in the time interval 0s to 4s in m/s.
c) Find the average velocity in the time interval 2s to 4s in m/s.
d) Find the average velocity in the time interval 4s to 7s in m/s.
e) Find the average velocity in the time interval 0s to 9s in m/s.
2) A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed 98.5 km/h except for a 15.1 min rest stop. If the person's average speed is 67.4 kn/h, how much time is spent on the trip in units of h.
a) How far does the person travel in units of km?

a) Find the average velocity in the time interval 0s to 2s in m/s.
Distance traveled in 2 seconds = 9+3 = 12 m
Average velocity = 12/2 = 6 m/s
b) Find the average velocity in the time interval 0s to 4s in m/s.
