Stop and go traffic means a lot of opportunities for acceleration. This assignment looks at a typical experience of a car in typical rush hour traffic. Calculate the different accelerations from the graph, interpret what your answers mean and show you really understand acceleration. A car traveled through rush hour traffic in a city. There was a lot of starting and stopping. The graph below shows the motion of the car for a 16 second interval of time. Velocity (m/s) 896543210 Graphing Acceleration B 7 A D 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Time (s) E Explain what is going on between point B and C in terms of velocity and acceleration. a.
