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?

v = vo + at.

v = 12cm/s + 8cm/s^2*3s

v = 12cm/s + 24cm/s

v = 36cm/s

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

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

vAve = (36cm/s + 12cm/s)/2 = 24cm/s

#$&*

How far will it travel during this interval?

vAve = ds/dt

ds = vAve*dt

ds = 24cm/s * 3s = 72cm
