The object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.
Option 3.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In the figure, x-axis is representing increase in the time and y-axis is presenting increase in the distance from bottom to up. But the line in the graph which is plotted is decreasing from high distance to small distance with increase in time. So this indicates that as the time is increasing, the distance is decreasing.
And the object is moving toward the origin as the distance of the object motion is found to decrease with increase of time as per the graph. But the slope of the graph is found to be almost constant, this indicates that the velocity of the object is constant. Thus, the object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.
Answer:
Distance covered by B is 4 times distance covered by A
Explanation:
For an object in free fall starting from rest, the distance covered by the object in a time t is
where
s is the distance covered
g is the acceleration due to gravity
t is the time elapsed
In this problem:
- Object A falls through a distance during a time t, so the distance covered by object A is
- Object B falls through a distance during a time 2t, so the distance covered by object B is
So, the distance covered by object B is 4 times the distance covered by object A.
