why dont you give me one of the questions? I know im just a freshman, but im pretty good with physics...
Number 2.
A triangle with a hypotenuse measuring 50m, with a ball rolling down it toward the left (signifying negative position). V=0 m/s, x=50m.
2.
a) Draw an x-t graph.
b) Write an equation showing x as a function of t.
c) Draw a v-t graph.
d) Write an equation showing v as a function of t.
e) Draw an a-t graph.
f) Write an equation showing a.
g) Draw a motion map.
ok, so you know what an x-t graph is, right?
if you dont, this is an example: http://www.lightandmatter.com/html_books/1np/ch02/figs/xt-graph-5.png
this is a v-t graph

imagine a right triangle facing to the left, with the ball rolling down it going 50 meters per second. negative position means its going down, so your x-t graph should start at the top left. (im not sure where, unless the question had a height) then draw the line down to the right to any specified position that it has on your paper. dont worry about v=0, that MIGHT be to confuse you. (its basically saying that there is no velocity...i think) sorry, but im not sure how to use a v-t graph. and i didnt see "a" in any equation. I really hope some of this helps!
