A car is moving at constant speed on the
freeway. The driver sees a patrol car at time
ti and rapidly slows down by around 10 miles
per hour. After continuing at this speed for
a few minutes, the driver at time ty quickly
accelerates to the original constant speed.
Which graph correctly describes the car's
acceleration a(t) as a function of time? Take
the forward direction of motion as positive.

Respuesta :

Answer: graph 6

Explanation:

The car is at first moving at a constant speed and there is no acceleration.

After seeing a patrol car it starts slowing down i.e. decelerating for a short while the car moves at a lower constant speed. At timet2 the car then accelerates to the original constant speed at which it remains.
