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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
It will be traveling the same speed. The energy and momentum of the ball on the way to its peak height equals the momentum and energy of the ball on its way down from its peak.

What, if anything, is different in your answer if air resistance is present? Give your best explanation.
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
I think the ball would be traveling slower on its way down. The original velocity could not be replicated because some of the energy of the initial push is spent fighting air resistance, instead of being spent on the return trip of the ball.
