A car enters an onramp of a highway at 21.8 m/s and travels at a constant velocity for 3.63 s before speeding up to a final velocity of 32.1 m/s in 6.90 s to merge with highway traffic. The total time taken for the trip is 10.5 s. Assume the car doesn't have to change direction for this motion (1D motion). Draw a picture of this motion and create a coordinate system Please reverse the direction of your coordinate system....
