wouldn't actually stop for most drivers and the graph would hardly be
parallel to the x-axis.
7: I wasn't there but I was performing in a show at the same time
and I learned that your mind can play tricks on you; we usually do the
show at night, I assumed it was nighttime during the show and was

accelerated again.
6: Pulling out of the drive way, reversing and changing
direction, and then accelerating down the street.

between the solid and a surface that makes it react and move the way it
does.

4: He started going slow and as time passed he sped up.
5: He started off going fast, then slowed down and came to a
stop. He then started off going slow again and sped up at the end.
6: The graph starts off by going backwards in distance (in the
negative) so this graph probably represents some one going in reverse,
stopping to change the car to "drive" and then driving off and
accelerating.

4: He started slower and then sped up!!!
5: He started slow, sped up, leveled out at a consisten speed and
then sped up again.
6: You could driving on a highway going a constant speed and then
have to get off at a ramp so you slow down untill you merge onto the
next highway and can speed up again.

5: Drove real fast at first, then slowed down, and finally sped
up again.
6: When changing lanes on the road?
7: It was neat learning about speed and graphing, but I would
have to say that learning about how dry ice moves was the most
interesting. It is so cool how it goes straight from a solid to a gas,
and when placed on the floor it is able to move smoothly b/c the floor
heats up the dry ice to form a layer of gas between the floor and dry
ice (creating no friction).
8: What is dry ice used for?

Then he started going forward again, moving at the same speed he was

6: You slow to stop at a red light, wait for it to turn green,
and then accelerate again.
7: I thought it was interested when we recorded the motion of the
dry ice puck, as I would think that it would not have much friction and

leaves your hand; then it goes up and then eventually falls.

shows acceleration.

the distance is getting smaller... meaning he is moving towards
something, but them moving away at the end.

they mean the same thing because speed tells you how fast an object is
moving and velocity tells you speed but adds direction.
