A ball accelerates at 8 cm/s/s for 3 seconds, starting with velocity 12 cm/s.

• What will be its velocity after the 3 seconds has elapsed?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

The velocity after 3 additional seconds will be 36 cm/s^2 because it is gaining 8cm/s every second in terms of velocity.

• Assuming that acceleration is constant, what will be its average velocity during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

12 – 20 – 28 – 36

The average would be 24 cm/s as this is the midpoint of the two endpoints. This is only true because the acceleration is constant.

• How far will it travel during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

It will travel 72 cm in the 3 second time frame
