What is Physics?
Imagine you are creating a new phone app that helps prevent speeding. Your phone app uses GPS to keep track of the total distance a car has travelled. It logs a data point every two minutes. What kind of speed information can you derive from this data?

Time	Total Distance Covered (m)
10:33AM	2640
10:35AM	5800
10:37AM	6000
10:39AM	7200
10:41AM	9000
10:43AM	10340
10:45AM	12920
