Question
Chapter 2, Problem 5STP
To determine
To Choose: The correct option.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 5STP
Option A
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The position time graph is given. The slope of position time graph gives the velocity.
- A squirrel descends 8-m at constant speed in 1.5 min. It means the slope of the graph would be linear. It would be downwards slope.
- It remains at rest for next 2.3 min. As it reaches position 0, the graph would be flat line on the time axis.
- It moves back to the same position within 0.1 min. again, the graph must be linear and the final point must correspond to the initial position.
The graph that fits the scenario is graph A.
Conclusion:
Thus, correct option is A.
