during a part of their journey.
a. From segment 0 - A, the bus is _____________________________ (accelerating; decelerating; constant speed; at rest).
b. From segment A - B, the bus is _____________________________ (accelerating; decelerating; constant speed; at rest).
c. From segment B - C, the bus is _____________________________ (accelerating; decelerating; constant speed; at rest).
d. From segment C - D, the bus is _____________________________ (accelerating; decelerating; constant speed; at rest).
e. From segment D - E, the bus is _____________________________ (accelerating; decelerating; constant speed; at rest).
