For the following exercises, consider an astronaut on a large planet in another galaxy. To learn more about the composition of this planet, the astronaut drops an electronic sensor into a deep trench. The sensor transmits its vertical position every second in relation to the astronaut’s position. The summary of the falling sensor data is displayed in the following table.
Time after dropping (s) | Position (m) |
0 | 0 |
1 | -1 |
2 | -2 |
3 | -5 |
4 | -7 |
5 | -14 |
