Part I: Motion and Forces, Work and Energy
1. Review position time graphs, velocity time graphs and acceleration time graphs.

One day, Mr. Sciarretta is traveling from home to ND. He is travelling West on Bovaird at a constant speed of 20 m/s (Mr. Sciarretta follows all traffic laws, including the speed limit) for 1 minute. As he approaches an intersection, he notices that the light has turned red and hence he decelerates and comes to a stop in 15 seconds. Suddenly, Mr. Sciarretta notices that he forgot his Physics exam at home (so he makes a U-Turn) and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 25 m/s in 10 seconds. He then travels at this speed for the next 2 minutes until he arrives home.
