Minho sprinted across the street, taking a sharp turn into the darkened alley. The place stank of rot and decay. He pulled the hankerchief further up his face, attempting to block out the smell. It did little. "Let's get this shucking thing over with," he muttered darkly, and with a mirthless smile to accompany his hardened eyes. He walked out the other end of the alley and searched for a house labeled 42. Most of the houses were ransacked and burnt, the windows were boarded. Minho eventually…

The two graphs of the distance vs. time graph along with the velocity vs. time graph, accurately supports the hypothesis formed at the beginning of this experiment.

However, from another perspective, it might seem as if the diagram is showing a constant, positive velocity as the line is linear with no…
