[Note: In our lab, the motion sensors are looking at their respective carts from opposite directions, so the positive direction for one sensor is the negative direction for the other, but for the purposes of this question, we will assume that the sensors agree upon the positive direction .] O The graph goes no higher than dotted line #2.
