Speed and Velocity

Question 6 • 350CR Integrated Science

Using the information in the graph, compare the motion of runners A, B, and C. Be sure to compare the initial position and velocity of each runner.

Answer

Answer:

Runner A starts at the 0 m position and has the highest velocity, represented by the steepest slope. Runner B starts at the 2 m position and has a lower velocity than Runner A. Runner C starts at the 4 m position and has a velocity of zero because the line is horizontal, meaning the runner is stationary. All three runners reach the 4 m mark at 4 seconds.
