** **

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?

6 cm/s

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.

12 cm/s

By how much did its velocity therefore change?

By 12 cm/s from the intial velocity to the final velocity

At what average rate did its velocity change with respect to clock time?

Changed 2.4 cm/s

What would a graph of its velocity vs. clock time look like? Give the best description you can.

The graph would have a positive slope rising up towards the right of the graph.
