How can you determine the total displacement from a velocity vs. time graph?

• By finding the slope of the graph

• By calculating the area under the graph

• By measuring the height of the graph

• By measuring the length of the graph

Describe the object's motion.

• The object is moving to the right at constant velocity.

• The object is moving to the left at constant velocity.

• The object is standing still at 3m for at least 10 seconds.

What is the displacement of the object at 45 seconds?

• 7 m

• 13 m

• .16 m

• 6.4 m

Where is the object at 10 seconds?

• 1 m

• 2.5 m

• 3.5 m

• 4 m
