For each situation state which of the five quantities v0, vf, `ds, `dt and a are given, and give the value of each.
A ball accelerates uniformly from 10 cm/s to 20 cm/s while traveling 45 cm.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v0=10cm/s, vf=20cm/s, 'ds= 45cm
vAve= (vf+v0)/2= (20cm/s+10cm/s)/2= 15cm/s
'dv= 20cm/s-10cm/s=10cm/s

A ball accelerates uniformly at 10 cm/s^2 for 3 seconds, and at the end of this interval is moving at 50 cm/s.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
a=10cm/s^2, 'dt=3 sec, vf=50cm/s
'dv=a*'ds=3s*10cm/s=30cm
'dv=vf-v0
30=50cm/s-v0
v0=20cm/s
vAve=(50cm/s+20cm/s)/2=35cm/s

A ball travels 30 cm along an incline, starting from rest, while accelerating at 20 cm/s^2.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
'ds=30cm, v0=0cm/s, a=20cm/s^2
vf^2=(0cm/s)2+2(20cm/s^2)(30cm)
vf^2=1200cm^2/s^2
sqrt(vf^2)=sqrt(1200cm^2/s^2)
vf=35cm/sec
'dv= 35cm/s-0cm/sec=35cm/s
vAve=(35cm/sec+0cm/sec)/2= 17.5cm/sec

Then for each situation answer the following:
Is it possible from this information to directly determine vAve?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Yes, shown above

Is it possible to directly determine `dv?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Yes, shown above

Very good responses. Let me know if you have questions.
