a) what distance has the motorbike travelled between 0 and T (in km)?

b) What distance has the car traveled between 0 and T (in km)?

2) Which of these statements is true?

a. At T, the car and motorbike are at the same location.

b. the acceleration of the car is constant between 0 and T 

c. the acceleration of the motorbike is 0

d. the acceleration of the car is 0 

3)
