The problem:

A ball starts with velocity 4 cm/sec and ends with a velocity of 10 cm/sec.

*

What is your best guess about the ball's average velocity?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):

7 cm/s

Without further information, why is this just a guess?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):

We don't know exactly how the ball travelled and if in may have gone fast before slowing down.

*

If it takes 3 seconds to get from the first velocity to the second, then what is your best guess about how far it traveled during that time?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):

21 cm

#$&*

*

At what average rate did its velocity change with respect to clock time during this interval?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> scussion (start in the next line):

2 cm/s

this would be (6 cm/s) / (3 s) = 2 cm/s^2, not 2 cm/s.

Note that you do need to briefly show how you get your results.
