Your computer geek friend has written a program that reads the accel- erometer and calculates the laptop's apparent weight. You're amusing yourself with this program on a long plane flight. Your laptop weighs just 5 pounds, and for a long time that's what the program reports. But then the "Fasten Seatbelt" light comes on as the plane encounters turbu- lence. Figure 4.27 shows the readings for the laptop's apparent weight over a 12-second interval that includes the start of the turbulence. 76. At the first sign of turbulence, the plane's acceleration a. is upward. b. is downward. c. is impossible to tell from the graph. 77.
