Which runner is faster? Be careful. You need to do some calculation here.

• red line runner

• blue line runner

What is the velocity from 0-5 seconds?

• 0

• 5m/4s

• 4m/5s

• -4m/5s

The picture of the position vs. time graph shows an object that is...

• accelerating/speeding up
• moving at a constant speed 
• not moving 
• accelerating/slowing down. 

This is a velocity-time graph.  What is the object doing in segment A?

• Positive acceleration
• Negative acceleration
• Constant Velocity
• Not moving
