Given the velocity vs. time graph above, answer the following questions. a.) During which time interval(s) (just give one of the intervals) is the acceleration of the particle equal to 0 m/s^2 ? (Enter intervals as (5,7) to represent between 5 and 7 seconds) b.) What is the velocity of the particle at 5 s? c.) What is the acceleration of the particle at 3 s? d.) During which time interval is the particle moving in the negative direction?

Base your answers to questions 15 through 19 on the graph below, which represents the relationship between speed and time for an object in straight-line motion. Speed vs. Time 15. Calculate the acceleration of the object during the time interval t = 3.0 seconds to t = 5.0 seconds. 16. Determine the average speed of the object during the time interval t = 6.0 seconds to t = 8.0 seconds. 17. Calculate the total distance traveled by the object during the first 3.0 seconds. 18. Identify the interval during which the magnitude of the object's acceleration is greatest.
