(a) Graph is attached

The velocity-time graph for the cart is attached.

On the x-axis, time is represented in seconds (s).

On the y-axis, velocity is represented in metres per second (m/s).

Since the cart travels constantly at 5 m/s, its velocity remains the same, so it is represented as a flat line, until a time of 10 seconds.

(b) The slope of the graph representes the acceleration

In a velocity-time graph, the slope of the graph represents acceleration (which is measured in metres per second square, $m s^{-2}$ ). In fact, acceleration is defined as

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity while $\Delta t$ is the change in time.

In the graph, we see that $\Delta v$ corresponds to the increment in the y-variable, while $\Delta t$ corresponds to the increment of the x-variable; so acceleration is also equal to

$a=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$

which is the slope of the graph. In this particular case, the line is flat: this means that the slope is zero, so the acceleration is zero.

A) The car started with a velocity = 5 m/s at time t = 0 seconds, and finish it path (that means its velocity = 0 m/s) at t = 10 seconds.

If we draw this two points: (0, 5) and (10, 0) we get a line, where x-variable represents time in seconds and y-variable represents the velocity of the car (see picture attached).

B) The slope of the plot obtained in point A is calculated as follows:

slope = (0 - 5)/(10 - 0) = -0.5

which represent the variation of velocity respect time, this is called acceleration. In this case, the acceleration is -0.5 m/s². The negative value indicates that the car is decreasing its velocity as time increase.

Refrigerant-134a flows through a carnot heat pump cycle at 0.5 kg/s. it is known that the maximum absolute temperature in the cycle is 1.1 times the minimum absolute temperature, and the net power input to the cycle is 2.5 kw. if the refrigerant changes from a saturated vapor to a saturated liquid during the heat rejection process, determine the maximum magnitude of the enthalpy of vaporization for this process in kj/kg (with 3 significant figures).
