During which time interval did the object first travel in a positive direction?​

• 0-10 s

• 10-15 s

• 15-40 s

• 40-55 s

During which time interval did the object travel in a negative direction?

• 0-10 s

• 10-15 s

• 15-40 s

• 40-55 s

Which of the following best describes the behavior between 10 and 15 seconds?

• the object is at rest

• the object is increasing speed

• the object is decreasing speed

• the object is moving with constant speed

Match each time time interval with the distance traveled.

• 0 m

• 10-15 sec

• 40 m

• 40-55 sec

• 60 m

• 15-30 sec

Match each time interval with the speed of the object during that time.

• 0 m/s

• 30-40 sec

• 4 m/s

• 10-15 sec

• 6 m/s

• 0-10 sec

• 3 m/s

• 40-55 sec
