A cat walks in a straight line, which we shall call the -axis, with the positive direction to the right. As an observant physicist, you make measurements of this cat's motion and construct a graph of the feline's velocity as a function of time (Figure 1).
I. Calculate the area under the graph between t = 0 and t = 6.0 s. (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)
II. For the time interval t = 0 to t = 6.0 s, what is the magnitude of the average velocity of the cat? (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)
III. Use constant-acceleration equations to calculate the distance the cat travels in this time interval. (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)
