A group of rescue workers is rescuing a dog from a condemned building. Due to demolition, the building has no stairs leading to the ground level. On the ground, the rescue workers hold the edges of a heavy tarp parallel to the ground, at a height of 1.5 meters (shoulder height). The dog will jump out of the window and onto the tarp. Which action will BEST minimize the force of the impact on the dog?

Answer:   [a]:   "slate" .

Answertraveling around a circular trackexplanation"traveling around a circular track" is the best answer as you could be traveling around a circular track at a constant speed. your velocity would therefore have the same magnitude but will always be constantly direction. since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, the rate of change will only involve the direction of velocity and not the magnitude.wrong choices: "an object at rest" does not accelerate at all"increasing speed while traveling around a curve" means that the acceleration will not be constant due to only change in direction; it will be constant due to both magnitude and direction"an object in free fall" does not necessarily change direction
