a) Is the twitch - initial positive twitch or sudden movement, which is what
makes the car jolt into action.

b) is the acceleration - graph shows the acceleration and
deceleration of the car.

c) is the velocity - starts at 0 and increases until the car
travels at its right speed.

d) is the position - assuming that the car is going on only
one direction. This graph is the only one that does not go back to the x-axis.

The identification of each curve should be like a - twitch, b - acceleration, c - velocity, and d - position.

a. It is the twitch since initial positive twitch or there is a sudden movement, i.e. what makes the car jolt into action.

b) It is the acceleration - Since the graph represents the acceleration & deceleration of the car.

c) It is the velocity - It begins with 0 and increases till the car travels at its right speed.

d) It is the position - Here we presume that the car is going in only one direction.
