1. Describe how a dot diagram represents an object moving at a constant speed. How does this differ from a dot diagram of an object at rest?
2. Explain how the spacing between dots in a dot diagram indicates whether an object is speeding up or slowing down.
3. An object is moving from left to right. In a dot diagram, the dots are getting closer together. What is the direction of the object's velocity and acceleration? Explain your reasoning.
