Question: Speed trials The figure gives the times that it takes a Porsche 911 to reach speeds from 0 mph to 100 mph, in increments of 10 mph, with a curve connecting them. The area under this curve from t = 0 seconds to t = 14 seconds represents the total amount of distance traveled over the 14-second period. Count the squares under the curve to estimate this distance. This car will travel ¼ mile in 14 seconds, to a speed of 100.2 mph. Is your estimate close to this result? (Be careful with time units.)
