More Problems on Kinematics

S6 The graph shows the position of an object versus time.
a.) Using the tangent method, find the velocity of the object at a few points and then sketch a velocity versus time graph.
b.) At what time(s) is the object at rest?
c.) At what time(s) does the object have a negative velocity?
d.) Using your sketch of velocity versus time, use the tangent method at a few points and then sketch an acceleration versus time graph.
e.) When is the acceleration largest in magnitude?
