Question

The images of trees come from a catalog advertising fast-growing trees. If we mark the position of the top of the tree in the successive years, as shown in the graph in the figure, we obtain a motion diagram much like ones we have seen for other kinds of motion. The motion isn’t steady, of course. In some months the tree grows rapidly; in other months, quite slowly. We can see, though, that the average speed of growth is fairly constant for the first few years.

What is this speed in m/s?
A. 9 x 10^-8 m/s B. 3 x 10^-9 m/s
C. 5 x 10^-6 m/s D. 2 x 10^-6 m/s

у (f)
30-ot= 3 years
21-0t = 2 years
12-•t=1 year
