Chapter 2, Problem 24MCQ
Figure Q2.24 shows a motion diagram with the clock reading (in seconds) shown at each position. From t = 9 s to t = 15 s the object is at the same position. After that, it returns along the same track. The positions of the dots for t ≥ 16 s are offset for clarity. Which graph best represents the object's velocity?
