Answer:

Answer (b)

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time, therefore constant acceleration will be changing velocity in direct proportion to time and will have a linear plot on a velocity/time chart. This eliminates answer (d) which has an increasing acceleration in time

answer (a) has a negative slope so the acceleration would be considered negative

answer (c) has zero slope so acceleration is zero and velocity is constant.

answer (b) has the required positive slope and acceleration

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

Answer:

22145.27733 ft

124984.76055 ft

Explanation:

The equation of pressure is

$P=P_0e^{-kh}$

where,

$P_0$ =Atmospheric pressure = 800 mbar

k = Constant

h = Altitude = 35000 ft

$P=\dfrac{1}{3}P_0$

$\dfrac{1}{3}P_0=P_0e^{-k35000}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}=e^{-k35000}\\\Rightarrow 3=e^{k35000}\\\Rightarrow ln3=k35000\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{ln3}{35000}\\\Rightarrow k=3.13\times 10^{-5}$

Now

$P=\dfrac{1}{2}P_0$

$ln2=kh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln2}{k}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln2}{3.13\times 10^{-5}}\\\Rightarrow h=22145.27733\ ft$

The altitude will be 22145.27733 ft

$P=0.02P_0$

$0.02P_0=P_0e^{-kh}\\\Rightarrow 0.02=e^{-3.13\times 10^{-5}h}\\\Rightarrow ln0.02=-3.13\times 10^{-5}h\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln0.02}{-3.13\times 10^{-5}}\\\Rightarrow h=124984.76055\ ft$

The elevation is 124984.76055 ft
