Question:
Show a motion diagram. For each of these problems, write a one or two sentence "story" about a real objec1 that has this motion diagram. Your stories should talk about people or objects by name and say what they are doing. Problems 39 through 45 are examples of motion short stories.
Problem 39 Through 45
39; In a typical greyhound race, a dog accelerates to a speed of 20 m/s over a distance of 30 m. It then maintains this speed.
What would be a greyhound's time in the 100 m dash?
Problem are motion problems similar to those you will learn to solve in Chapter 2. For now, simply interpret the problem by drawing a motion diagram showing the object's position and its velocity vectors. Do not solve these problems or do any mathematics.
40; Billy drops a watermelon from the top of a three-story building, 10 m above the sidewalk. How fast is the watermelon going when it hits?

41; Sam is recklessly driving 60 mph in a 30 mph speed zone when he suddenly sees the police. He steps on the brakes and slows to 30 mph in three seconds, looking nonchalant as he passes the officer. How far does he travel while braking?
