Question 27





A parcel of air moving in a straight tube with a constant acceleration of a = m/s2 has a velocity of vi = m/s at 10:05:00 a.m.
(a) What is its velocity at 10:05:01 a.m.?
(b) At 10:05:04 a.m.?
(c) At 10:04:59 a.m.?
(d) Describe the shape of a graph of velocity versus time for this parcel of air.
(e) Argue for or against the following statement: "Knowing the single value of an object's constant acceleration is like knowing a whole list of values for its velocity."
t = s
t1 = s
