3.22 Figure 3.25 gives a speed-time graph of a particle in motion along a constant direction. Three equal intervals of time are shown. In which interval is the average acceleration greatest in magnitude? In which interval is the average speed greatest? Choosing the positive direction as the constant direction of motion, give the signs of v and a in the three intervals. What are the accelerations at the points A, B, C and D?

Choosing the positive direction as the constant direction of motion, give the signs of v and a in the three intervals. What are the accelerations at the points A, B, C and D?

3.22 The change in the speed with time is maximum in interval 2. Therefore, the average acceleration is the greatest in magnitude in interval 2
The average speed is maximum in interval 3
The sign of velocity is positive in intervals 1,2 and 3
Acceleration depends on the slope. The acceleration is posit
