Question

7.) how much distance did the object travel during the entire trip? 8.) how long did the trip take? 9.) what is the average speed for the entire trip?

Explanation:

Step1: Determine distance

From the graph, the object starts at distance \(d_1 = 25\) m and ends at \(d_2=0\) m. So the total distance traveled \(d=25 - 0=25\) m.

Step2: Determine time

The object starts at time \(t_1 = 0\) s and ends at \(t_2 = 25\) s. So the total time taken \(t = 25-0 = 25\) s.

Step3: Calculate average - speed

The formula for average speed \(v=\frac{d}{t}\). Substituting \(d = 25\) m and \(t = 25\) s, we get \(v=\frac{25}{25}=1\) m/s.

Answer:

1. The object traveled 25 m.
2. The trip took 25 s.
3. The average speed for the entire trip is 1 m/s.
