The problem:

A ball accelerates at 8 cm/s^2 for 3 seconds, starting with velocity 12 cm/s.

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

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

 aAve = `dv / `dt

8cm/sec^2 = `dv / 3 sec

`dv = 8cm/sec^2 * 3 sec

`dv = 24cm/sec

vf = v0 + `dv = 12cm/sec + 24cm/sec = 36cm/sec

#$&*

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

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

vAve = (vf + v0) / 2

vAve = ( 36cm/sec + 12cm/sec) / 2 = (48cm/sec) / 2 = 24cm/sec

vAve = 24 cm/sec

#$&*

• How far will it travel during this interval?

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

vAve = `ds / `dt

vAve * `dt = `ds

(24cm/sec) * 3 sec = `ds

`ds = 72cm
