Question

This graph describes the motion of a sky diver that jumped from an airplane. The skydiver is MOST LIKELY ?

Answer 1

Answer:

A) being influenced by equal amounts of gravity and air resistance.

Explanation:

B) slowing down because of an unbalanced force of air resistance.

False - if it was slowing down, then the velocity would go down.

D) on the ground and is not falling anymore.

False - This would be mistaken as the answer but it is not because if the person is not falling anymore the horizontal line should be at the x-axis, meaning that there is no more velocity.

C) accelerating because of an unbalanced force of gravity.

False - The line would otherwise be going up or down.
