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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

7 cm/s

#$&*

Without further information, why is this just a guess?

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

This is my guess because I just averaged the two values any way I would average any other two numbers.

#$&*

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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):

7 cm/s*3s=21cm

#$&*

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

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

7 cm/s

#$&*

*#&!

@& You did not answer the last question correctly. You gave the average velocity, not the average rate at which the velocity changes with respect to clock time.
