a) They begin at the same position and the same time.
b) They have the same velocity.
c) They never have the same position at the same time.
d) They travel for the same length of time.
7. If each line on the grid represents 2 units, and the positive y-direction is east of the origin,
which object travelled 2 m west during the first 2 s?
a) A b) B c) C d) D
8. In a mathematical representation of a straight line on a position-time graph, what quantity is
represented by the y-intercept?
a) the time taken b) the final position c) the average velocity d) the initial
position
9. If a car’s acceleration is in the same direction as its velocity, what happens to the car’s
speed?
a) The speed of the car does not change.
b) The speed of the car increases.
c) The speed of the car decreases.
d) There is not enough information to determine the car’s speed.

Question 3: A car is initially 6.0 m east of the origin. It drives west at a speed of 12 m/s. What
is its position after 1.2 s? (___/2.5)
Question 4: Heather and Juanita are travelling east. Decide who has the highest average
speed (show your full work). (___/3)
Question 5: A professional driver performs a 0 to 60 test on a test track. She starts the car at
rest and accelerates as quickly as possible to 60 miles per hour (26.8 m/s). If the small sedan
she is testing has a 0 to 60 time of 8.5 seconds, what is the car’s average acceleration?
