So the area under a velocity time graph is distance or displacement, if you have done calculus yet you will understand that if you take the integral of a velocity function then you end up with displacement. Thats for later understanding however.
So this appears to be a right triangle so we can find the area of a triangle as:
0.5bh = A
Since our area is 10 meters lets alter our formula a bit to fit the situation:
Our base here is time and our height is velocity so:
0.5tv = Δx
So we can read off the graph that our velocity at the end, or our final velocity appears to be near 2.0 m/s
So we have v, and Δx so lets isolate for time by dividing by v and 0.5
t = Δx / 0.5v
Now lets plug all that in:
t = 10 / 0.5(2)
t = 10 seconds
Hope this helped!
Answer:
D.
Explanation: Both have shapes determined by gravitational forces.
Mars is the focus of much scientific study about possible human colonization. Its surface conditions and the presence of water on Mars make it arguably the most hospitable of the planets in the Solar System, other than Earth. Mars requires less energy per unit mass (delta-v) to reach from Earth than any planet except Venus.
Permanent human habitation on a planetary body other than the Earth is one of science fiction's most prevalent themes. As technology has advanced, and concerns about the future of humanity on Earth have increased, the argument that space colonization is an achievable and worthwhile goal has gained momentum. Other reasons for colonizing space include economic interests, long-term scientific research best carried out by humans as opposed to robotic probes, and sheer curiosity.
One of Elon Musk's stated goals through his company SpaceX is to make such colonization possible by providing transport, and to "help humanity establish a permanent, self-sustaining colony on Mars within the next 50 to 100 years".
Many organizations support the colonization of Mars. They have also given different reasons and ways humans can live on Mars. One of the oldest organizations is the Mars Society. They promote a NASA program that supports human colonies on Mars. The Mars Society have set up Mars analog research stations in Canada and the United States. All other organizations include MarsDrive, who wants to help fund settlements on Mars, and Mars to Stay. Mars to Stay advocates settlements on Mars. In June 2012, Mars One released a statement that they believe could help start a colony on Mars by 2023.
