1. For each of the motion graphs shown above, describe, in detail, what the motion would look like.

2. For each x-t graph shown above, create the corresponding velocity and acceleration versus time graphs.

3. For each v-t graph shown above, create the corresponding x-t graph.

4. At a local football game (let's just say Carrick), a running back flattens a linebacker and continues running at a constant velocity of 10.5 m/s. The instant the linebacker hits the ground, he gets back up and starts running from rest to tackle the running back. If the linebacker accelerates at 1.9 m/s^2, how much time will it take to catch the runner? How far will they have traveled from their original position?
