Two graphs show the magnitude of position vector, |r(t)|, in meters and the angle, \(\phi^\circ\), in degrees, both plotted against time, \(t\), in seconds.

  • The left graph plots the magnitude of the position vector, \(|r(t)|\), versus time, \(t\).
  • The vertical axis is labeled \(|r(t)|\) in meters, ranging from \(0\) to \(100\) meters.
  • The horizontal axis is labeled \(t\) in seconds, ranging from \(0\) to \(4\) seconds.
  • A curve is plotted, starting near \((0, 0)\) and increasing monotonically, passing through approximately \((2, 25)\) and ending near \((4, 80)\) meters.
  • The right graph plots the angle, \(\phi^\circ\), versus time, \(t\).
  • The vertical axis is labeled \(\phi^\circ\) in degrees, ranging from \(0\) to \(70\) degrees.
  • The horizontal axis is labeled \(t\) in seconds, ranging from \(0\) to \(4\) seconds.
  • A curve is plotted, starting at \((0, 0)\) and increasing monotonically, passing through approximately \((2, 30)\) degrees and ending near \((4, 60)\) degrees.
