Question

hanging over the railing of a bridge you drop an egg (no initial velocity) as you throw a second egg downward .which curve gives the velocity v(t) for a) dropped egg and b) thrown egg. curves A and B are parallel so are C,D and E and so are F and G​

Answer 1

Answer:

cant explain the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Thus, curve for thrown egg is given by E.

Explanation:

for the first egg which is dropped off the bridge, its initial velocity is zero and the magnitude of velocity increases with the time due to acceleration due to gravity acting in downwards direction.

Thus, the curve D correctly represent the v-t curve for dropped egg

For the second egg which is thrown downwards with some initial velocity. The initial negative velocity is represented by the y-intercept on the graph. The magnitude of velocity increases with time as acceleration due to gravity acts in vertically downwards direction.

This curve has to be parallel to curve for first egg because the slope of both the curves is equal to the acceleration due to gravity.

thus, curve for thrown egg is given by E.

Thank you.
