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:

8cm/sec^2 = (vf-12cm/sec) / 3 sec

8 cm/sec^2 * 3 sec = vf – 12cm/sec

24 cm/sec = vf -12 cm/sec

Final velocity = 36 cm/sec

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

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

vAve = (108 cm- 0 cm)/ 3 sec

vAve= 36 cm/sec

• How far will it travel during this interval?

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

36 cm/sec = `ds / 3sec

`ds = 108 cm
