a. Is the relationship between time and distance an arithmetic sequence?
Explain.
b. The total distance a freely falling body covers in time, t, is given by the equation d(t)=1/2 gt2, where g is constant at 10 m/s². Show, in terms of n, the distance a falling body covers in t = n seconds of movement.
