Responses

a interval AB → no motion
interval BC → decreasing speed
interval CD → constant speed
interval DE → acceleration

b interval AB → no motion
interval BC → constant speed
interval CD → no motion
interval DE → acceleration

c interval AB → constant speed
interval BC → decreasing speed
interval CD → constant speed
interval DE → increasing speed

d interval AB → constant speed
interval BC → acceleration
interval CD → constant speed
interval DE → no motion

Answer 1

The correct option is:

c interval AB → constant speed
interval BC → decreasing speed
interval CD → constant speed
interval DE → increasing speed
