The graph is tied to the reading here is the reading for the question

students in a physics class observing the race note that each runner maintains the same acceleration from the start ofthe 8.0 second interval until they each reach the finish line where each of the runners slows to a stop. Two students inthe class make the following claims about the runners’ accelerations from the start of the 8.0 second interval until bothrunners are at rest.

Student 1:“Runner A has a positive acceleration until reaching the finish line and then a negative acceleration aftercrossing the finish line in order to “undo” all of the positive velocity she gained. Since Runner B neverhad any positive acceleration, she doesn’t need any negative acceleration to slow to a stop; heracceleration will be zero the whole time.”

Student 2:“But negative values mean away south in this case – how could runner A be turning around? I think bothrunners must have positive accelerations the whole time since they are always moving north.”

For part (c), do not simple repeat the students’ arguments in your answers.

here are the questions:

i. Which aspects of student 1’s reasoning, if any, are correct? Explain your answer.

Aplane flies a distance d from west to east at a constant speed vp , with respect to the air in a time twe . on the return trip, the plane flies a distance d from east to west at a constant speed vp , with respect to the air in a time tew . on both trips the wind blows from west to east at a constant speed va , with respect to the ground 1) what is tew in terms of vp, va, and d, as needed? tew=dvp tew=dvp+va tew=dva tew=dvpâ’va tew=12dvp tew=12dvp+va tew=12dvpâ’va your submissions: b submitted: saturday, january 26 at 6: 49 pm feedback: feedback will be given once all questions have been attempted and the grade cluster button has been pressed. 2) what is twe in terms of vp, va, and d, as needed? twe=dvp twe=dvp+va twe=dva twe=dvpâ’va twe=12dvp twe=12dvp+va twe=12dvpâ’va your submissions: d submitted: saturday, january 26 at 6: 49 pm feedback: feedback will be given once all questions have been attempted and the grade cluster button has been pressed. 3) assuming d = 2300 miles, vp = 400 miles/hr, and twe = 4 hours, what is va, the speed of the wind with respect to the ground? va = 100 miles/hr va = 575 miles/hr va = 200 miles/hr va = 175 miles/hr va = 975 miles/hr 4) once again, assuming d = 2300 miles, vp = 400 miles/hr, and twe = 4 hours, what is tew, the time it takes the plane to fly a distance d miles from east to west? tew = 5.75 hours tew = 11.5 hours tew = 7.67 hours tew = 8 hours tew = 10.2 hours
