Two cars travel on the parallel lanes of a two-lane road. The cars are at the same location at t = 0s, and move in such a way as to produce the velocity (relative to the ground) vs. time graph shown in the figure. On the graph, one vertical block is equivalent to one velocity unit.

Rank car #1’s speed relative to the ground at the lettered times (A through E). Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

Josef is late for a wedding and is speeding down a straight road at 145 km/hr when he passes an officer sitting in a police car parked behind a billboard at the side of the road. Two seconds after Josef's car passes him, the officer accelerates the police car from rest and maintains maximum acceleration of 8.5 km/hr s until he reaches a top speed of 210 km/hr. Eventually the officer gets within 150 m of the speeding vehicle and turns on the flashing lights. Josef sees the lights in his rearview mirror and panics, slamming on the brakes and starting to skid. Josef's car slows down at a rate of 5.5 m/s². It takes the officer 0.5 seconds to realize what is happening and to move his foot to the brake pedal before he can start to slow down. The police car slows down at a rate of 6 m/s².

The figure shows three graphs, A, B, C, which collectively describe the motion of an object in one dimension. The horizontal axis of each graph is time (symbol t). The vertical axes of the graphs are different. For one graph the vertical axis is position (symbol x), for another, it is the velocity (symbol v), and for another, it is acceleration (symbol a). Where the axes across is the point of zero for both time and the quantity corresponding to the vertical axis. Part A: For which sequence of graphs is the vertical coordinate position, velocity, and acceleration, respectively? (e.g., If you think graph Y is position versus time, graph X is velocity versus time, and graph Z is acceleration versus time, then your answer is Y, X, Z.). Multiple choice: 1)C, A, B 2)A, C, B 3)C, B, A 4)B, C, A 5)B, A, C 6)A, B, C. Part (b) Which one of the following situations can be most accurately represented by the graph, consistent with your answer to part (a)? (1) A car driving in the negative x-direction suddenly shifts into reverse and, with tires spinning, slows to a momentary stop before beginning to move in the position x-direction. (2)A car driving in the position x-direction slams on its brakes and comes to rest. (3) A rock is dropped from the rest from the top of a tall building. Assume air drag can be neglected, in which case its speed increases by the same amount each second. Take upward to be the position x-direction. (4) A sprinter runs a 100-meter dash and she runs in the negative x-direction. Starting from rest, she has a constant acceleration for the first 50 meters, then a constant speed for the remaining 50. Multiple choices: 1)4, 2)3, 3)2, 4)1.
