A ball is tossed vertically upward and caught at the position from which it was released.
• Ignoring air resistance will the ball at the instant it reaches its original position be traveling faster, slower, or at the same speed as it was when released?
answer/question/discussion: the exact same speed
• What, if anything, is different in your answer if air resistance is present? Give your best explanation.
answer/question/discussion: air resistance would be moving in the same direction as gravity while the ball is moving upward, and moving against gravity when the ball falls downward.
Be sure you understand how that would affect your answer to the original question.
