Seed 6.1

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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

Given:

`ds = 45 cm

 v0 = 10cm/sec

vf = 20cm/sec

#$&*

• 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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

Given:

aAve = 10cm/sec^2

vf = 50cm/sec

`dt = 3 sec 

#$&*

• A ball travels 30 cm along an incline, starting from rest, while accelerating at 20 cm/s^2. 

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

`ds = 30 cm

v0 = 0cm/sec

aAve = 20cm/sec^2 

#$&*

Then for each situation answer the following:

• Is it possible from this information to directly determine vAve? 

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

vAve = `ds / `dt

vAve = (vf + v0) / 2

First Situation: Yes, you can determine vAve by using the equation, vAve = (vf + v0) / 2

Second Situation: No, you can not determine vAve by the given information. In multiple steps though you could figure out all of the quantities.

Third Situation: No, you can not determine vAve by the gibbon information.

#$&*

• Is it possible to directly determine `dv? 

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

`dv = aAve * `dt

 First Situation: Yes, you can directly determine `dv by using the quantities vf and v0.

Second Situation: Yes, you can directly determine `dv by using the quantities aAve and `dt.

Third Situation: No, you can not determine `dv by the given information.
