- Serway Physics Problem 2.43
Figure P2.43 represents part of the performance data f a car owned by a proud physics student. (a) Calculate the total distance traveled by computing the area under the red-brown graph line. (b) What distance does the car travel between the times t=10s and t=40s?
(c) Draw a graph of its acceleration versus time between t=0 and t=50s
(d) Write an equation for x as a function f time for each phase of the motion , represented by the segments 0a, ab, and bc.
(e) What is the average velocity of the car between t=0and t=50s?

Hi. My question is for now why the equation of x as a function of time for phase of motion ab is ##x=50t-375##?
Shouldn't that be ##x=375+50t##?
