Maria walks at a constant speed of 2 m/s for 8 seconds.

a. Draw a speed vs. time graph for Maria’s motion.
b. How far does she walk?

I wanted to know what numbers would be on the time (x vaule) I know the Y is the position (2,4,6,8,10,12 etc)

2,8

4,16
6,24
etc.

To know how far, you need to know how many seconds.

2,8

To draw a speed vs. time graph for Maria's motion, we need to understand the relationship between speed and time. Speed is defined as the distance traveled per unit of time, and it can be calculated by dividing the total distance by the total time.

a. To create the speed vs. time graph, we can assume that Maria walks at a constant speed of 2 m/s for 8 seconds. Since her speed is constant, we can draw a straight line on the graph.

On the x-axis, we can plot the time in seconds, and on the y-axis, we can plot the speed in meters per second. We know that Maria walks at a constant speed of 2 m/s, so we can mark a point at (0, 2) to represent her speed at the beginning.

Since her speed is constant, the line representing her speed will be horizontal.

b. Now, let's calculate how far Maria walks. We can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

In this case, her speed is 2 m/s and she walks for 8 seconds. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Distance = 2 m/s × 8 s
Distance = 16 meters

Therefore, Maria walks a distance of 16 meters.

Maria walks at a constant speed of 2m/s for 8 seconds
