The figure shows a graph of the position x of two cars, C and D, as a function of time t.According to this graph, which statements about these cars must be true?

Your solution should clearly show all steps leading to the answer as well as justification for it.
Given the graph of acceleration vs time (picture), draw a graph of position vs time and velocity vs time. The initial conditions for the motion are z(t=0) = 2.00m and vz(t=0) = -1.50 m/s. Both graphs should be numerically correct, and show how the values were obtained.
