) 5 -5 1 2 3 4 5 Other than at t = 0, when is the velocity of the object equal to zero? 1. 5.0 s 2. 4.0 s 3. 3.5 s 4. At no other time on this graph. correct 5. During the interval from 1.0 s to 3.0 s. Explanation: Since vt = Z t 0 a dt, vt is the area between the acceleration curve and the t axis during the time period from 0 to t. If the area is above the horizontal axis, it is positive; otherwise, it is negative. In order for the velocity to be zero at any given time t, there would have to be equal amounts of positive and negative area between 0 and t. According to the graph, this condition is never satisfied. 005 (part 1 of 1) 0 points Identify all of those graphs that represent motion at constant speed (note the axes carefully). a) t x b) t v c) t a d) t v e) t a
