The problem:
A ball starts with velocity 0 and accelerates uniformly down a ramp of length 30 cm, covering the distance in 5 seconds.
What is its average velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
vAve=30cm/5sec=6cm/sec
#$&*
If the acceleration of the ball is uniform then its average velocity is equal to the average of its initial and final velocities.
You know its average velocity, and you know the initial velocity is zero.
What therefore must be the final velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
6cm/sec= (v0+vf)/2
12cm/sec=vf
#$&*
By how much did its velocity therefore change?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
12cm/sec-0cm/sec=12cm/sec
#$&*
At what average rate did its velocity change with respect to clock time?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
12cm/sec/5sec=2.4cm/sec/sec
#$&*
What would a graph of its velocity vs. clock time look like? Give the best description you can.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
Velocity is on vertical axis and clocktime is horizontal. The graph is increasing and has rise of 12 cm/sec and run is 5 sec and a slope of 2.4cm/sec/sec.
