Respuesta :

Let

D------> change in velocity in [tex] \frac{m}{s}} [/tex]

a------> acceleration in [tex] \frac{m}{s^{2}} [/tex]

t-------> is the time in sec

we know that

[tex] a=\frac{D}{t} \\ \\ D=a*t [/tex]

Find the change in velocity for each case

case 1) Kyra

[tex] a=5.2\ \frac{m}{s^{2}} \\ \\ t=6.9\ s [/tex]

Substitute in the formula above

[tex] D=a*t\\ D=5.2*6.9\\ D=35.88\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex]

case 2) Dustin

[tex] a=8.3\ \frac{m}{s^{2}} \\ \\ t=3\ s [/tex]

Substitute in the formula above

[tex] D=a*t\\ D=8.3*3\\ D=24.9\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex]

case 3) Diego

[tex] a=6.5\ \frac{m}{s^{2}} \\ \\ t=4.2\ s [/tex]

Substitute in the formula above

[tex] D=a*t\\ D=6.5*4.2\\ D=27.3\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex]

So

The list from greatest to lowest change in velocity is

Kira ([tex] 35.88\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex]) → Diego ([tex] 27.3\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex]) → Dustin ([tex] 24.9\ \frac{m}{s} [/tex])

therefore

the answer is the option

d. Kira → Diego → Dustin
