What does the graph show about the runners at time t ?

A Both runners are moving at the same speed.


B Runner 1 has zero acceleration.
C Runner 1 is overtaking runner 2.
D Runner 2 is slowing down.

2. At a sports event, a champion runner and a car take part in a race.

(a) The runner runs at a constant speed of 10 m / s from the start of the race. During the first 5.0 s
of the race, the car’s speed increases from 0 m / s to 25 m / s at a uniform rate.
