To solve the problems presented in the images, let's start by analyzing the first image with the graph and then address the questions in the second image.

### Graph Analysis
The graph appears to be a velocity vs. time graph. The x-axis represents time in seconds, and the y-axis represents velocity in meters per second (m/s). The graph shows three segments:

1. **First Segment (0 to 2 seconds):** The velocity increases from 0 to 8 m/s.
2. **Second Segment (2 to 4 seconds):** The velocity decreases from 8 m/s to 0 m/s.
3. **Third Segment (4 to 6 seconds):** The velocity decreases further to -8 m/s.

### Answering the Questions

1. **¿El objeto cambió de sentido en su movimiento en el tiempo? Si la respuesta es afirmativa, ¿Cuándo ocurrió?**
   - Yes, the object changed direction. This occurred at **t = 4 seconds**. The velocity crosses the time axis, going from positive (8 m/s) to negative (-8 m/s), indicating a reversal in direction.

2. **Aceleración en cada tramo:**
   - **First Segment (0 to 2 seconds):** 
     \[
     \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{8 \, \text{m/s} - 0 \, \text{m/s}}{2 \, \text{s} - 0 \, \text{s}} = 4 \, \text{m/s}^2
     \]
   - **Second Segment (2 to 4 seconds):**
     \[
     \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{0 \, \text{m/s} - 8 \, \text{m/s}}{4 \, \text{s} - 2 \, \text{s}} = -4 \, \text{m/s}^2
     \]
   - **Third Segment (4 to 6 seconds):**
     \[
     \text{Acceleration} = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{-8 \, \text{m/s} - 0 \, \text{m/s}}{6 \, \text{s} - 4 \, \text{s}} = -4 \, \text{m/s}^2
     \]

3. **Rapidez media (Average Speed):**
   - Average speed is the total distance divided by the total time.
   - **First Segment:**
     \[
     \text{Distance} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \, \text{m/s} \times 2 \, \text{s} = 8 \, \text{m}
     \]
   - **Second Segment:**
     \[
     \text{Distance} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \, \text{m/s} \times 2 \, \text{s} = 8 \, \text{m}
     \]
   - **Third Segment:**
     \[
     \text{Distance} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \, \text{m/s} \times 2 \, \text{s} = 8 \, \text{m}
     \]
   - Total Distance: \(8 \, \text{m} + 8 \, \text{m} + 8 \, \text{m} = 24 \, \text{m}\)
   - Total Time: \(6 \, \text{s}\)
   - Average Speed: 
     \[
     \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}} = \frac{24 \, \text{m}}{6 \, \text{s}} = 4 \, \text{m/s}
     \]

4. **Velocidad media (Average Velocity):**
   - Since the velocity changes direction, we must consider the displacement.
   - Displacement for **First and Second Segments:**
     \[
     8 \, \text{m} + 8 \, \text{m} = 16 \, \text{m}
     \]
   - Displacement for **Third Segment:**
     \[
     -8 \, \text{m}
     \]
   - Total Displacement: \(16 \, \text{m} - 8 \, \text{m} = 8 \, \text{m}\)
   - Average Velocity: 
     \[
     \frac{\text{Total Displacement}}{\text{Total Time}} = \frac{8 \, \text{m}}{6 \, \text{s}} = 1.33 \, \text{m/s}
     \]
