: The general equation for the distance, d, in meters that a free falling body has travelled (neglecting air friction) is

 

 

Gravity on Mars is, g = 3.711 m/sec2.

 

Create a table of time vs distance traveled on Mars for each of the following conditions.  You should have 3 tables, one for each part a b c, when you are finished.  Your tables must have column headings. You do not necessarily need to use Properties.VariableNames, but I prefer it.

  1. Values of time from 0 to 120 seconds in 10 second increments.
  2. Ten evenly spaced values of time from 0 to 120 seconds. (Evenly spaced does not mean 12 seconds between each!)

Fifteen logarithmically spaced values of time from 0.1 seconds to 100 seconds

Expert Solution
Step 1

g=3.711; d=@(t).5*g*t.^2; %% a t1=(0:10:120)'; dist1=d(t1); T1=table(t1,dist1,'VariableNames',{'Time','Distance'}); disp(T1) %% b t2=(linspace(0,120,10))'; dist2=d(t2); T2=table(t2,dist2,'VariableNames',{'Time','Distance'}); disp(T2) %% c t3=(logspace(-1,2,15))'; dist3=d(t3); T3=table(t3,dist3,'VariableNames',{'Time','Distance'}); disp(T3)
