; acceleration is negative at

t=1\,\text{s}

. b) Velocity becomes zero at

t=1\,\text{s}

and

t=3\,\text{s}

; acceleration is negative at

t=1\,\text{s}

. c) Velocity becomes zero at

t=1\,\text{s}

and

t=3\,\text{s}

; acceleration is positive at

t=1\,\text{s}

. d) Velocity becomes zero at

t=1\,\text{s}

and

t=3\,\text{s}

; acceleration is zero at

t=1\,\text{s}
