A position-time graph for a particle moving along the \( x \)-axis is shown in Figure P2.5. (a) Find the average velocity in the time interval \( t=1.50 \mathrm{~s} \) to \( t=4.00 \mathrm{~s} \). (b) Determine the instantaneous velocity at \( t=2.00 \mathrm{~s} \) by measuring the slope of the tangent line shown in the graph. (c) At what value of \( t \) is the velocity zero?
Expert Answer
Solution (a) From the graph, we get the given data are : At time t 1 = 1.50 sec , position x 1 = 8 m At time t 2
