When the body is at rest, its speed is zero, and the graph lies on the x-axis.
When the body is in uniform motion, the speed is constant, and the graph is a horizontal line, parallel to the x-axis and some distance above it.
It's impossible to tell, based on the given information, how these two parts of the
graph are connected. There must be some sloping (accelerated) portion of the graph
that joins the two sections, but it cannot be accounted for in either the statement
that the body is at rest or that it is in uniform motion, since acceleration ... that is,
any change of speed or direction ... is not 'uniform' motion'.
Answer: a) 3.85 days
b) 10.54 days
Explanation:-
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant = ?
t = time taken for decomposition = 3 days
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g
a - x = amount left after decay process = 
First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get


a) Half-life of radon-222:


Thus half-life of radon-222 is 3.85 days.
b) Time taken for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount:
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken for decomposition = ?
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100 g
a - x = amount left after decay process = 


Thus it will take 10.54 days for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount.
