Question:

Some high school physics students dropped a ball and measured the distance fallen (in centimeters) at various times (in seconds) after its release. If you have studied physics, you probably know that the theoretical relationship between the variables is distance=490(time)2. Which of the following scatterplots would not approximately follow a straight line?

a. A plot of distance versus (time)2

b. A plot of √distance versus time

c. A plot of distance versus √time

d. A plot of ln(distance) versus ln(time)

e. A plot of log(distance) versus log(time)
