1. The velocity, v, in meters per second, of a falling object on Earth aftert seconds, ignoring the effect of air resistance, is modeled by the equation v
9.8t. There is a different linear relationship between time and velocity on
Mars, as shown in the table below. If an object dropped toward the surface
of Earth has a velocity of 58.8 meters per second after t seconds, what
would be the velocity of the same object dropped toward the surface of
Mars after t seconds, ignoring the effect of air resistance? You may use a
calculator. *
