Refer to the position time graph provided to answer questions #1 thru 5. 1. What is the instantaneous velocity of the object at 5 s?

2. What is the distance the object moves from 0 to 9 seconds?

3. What displacement did the object have between 2 s and 9 s?

4. What was the object's average velocity over the first 5 seconds?
5. How many times does the object change direction of travel? (time zero
does not count and standing still does not count as a direction change)

Explanation:

1). To calculate the instantaneous velocity of the object, we will calculate the slope of the line CD.

  Since line CD is a straight line, therefore, slope = 0

  Hence instantaneous velocity = 0

2). Distance of the object when it moves from 0 to 9 seconds

    = Distance traveled from (A to B + B to C + C to D + D to E)

    = 3 + (3 + 0.5) + 0 + 0.5

    = 7 m

3). Displacement = Distance between initial and the final positions of the object

    = 3 - 0

    = 3 m

4). Average velocity =

                                 =

                                 = 0.1 m per sec

5). Direction changes have been seen at t = 2 sec and t = 4 sec.

   Hence object changed its direction of travel 2 times.

i guess it’s a and b

i really dont know but i will try okay.

so i think u would just add all them up and get your answer..
