. A student times a car traveling a distance of 2 m. She finds that it takes the car 5 s to
travel the first meter and then another 8 s to travel the second meter. Is the car traveling
at a constant speed? How do you know?

Answer :

No, the car travels 1 metre in 5s at the start which is 0.2m/s, while the second meter it travels one metre in 8 seconds which is 0.125 m/s, the speed changes therefore it is not constant during the two metres the car travels
