Question
A New Velocity Function..Dealing with Negative Velocity
Suppose that an object moving along a straight line
path has its velocity v (in feet per second) at time i (in
seconds) given by
v(t) = ?- 31 +
We will approximate the distance travelled by the object
on the time interval 1<t<5.
Was the object traveling in the same direction for this
time interval?
Yes
No
Cannot tell from the graph of the velocity of the object
If your answer was no, compare the intervals
1st<1.5 and 2<i<2.5. How does the motion of
the object on those two intervals differ?
When calculating the distance traveled on an interval
where the velocity is negative, what do you need to do?
