Copy the problem below into a text editor or word processor.
• This form accepts only text so a text editor such as Notepad is fine.
• You might prefer for your own reasons to use a word processor (for example the formatting features might help you organize your answer and explanations), but note that formatting will be lost when you submit your work through the form.
• If you use a word processor avoid using special characters or symbols, which would require more of your time to create and will not be represented correctly by the form.
• As you will see within the first few assignments, there is an easily-learned keyboard-based shorthand that doesn't look quite as pretty as word-processor symbols, but which gets the job done much more efficiently.
You should enter your answers using the text editor or word processor. You will then copy-and-paste it into the box below, and submit.

A ball is tossed upward with an initial velocity of 25 meters / second. Assume that the acceleration of gravity is 10 m/s^2 downward.
• What will be the velocity of the ball after one second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v0 = 25 m/s
g = -10m/s^2
vf = ?
vf = v0 + (a)(t)
vf = 25 m/s + (-10 m/s^2)(1 s)
vf = 15 m/s
The velocity of the ball after one second equals: 15 m/s

• What will be its velocity at the end of two seconds?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
vf = v0 + at
vf = 25 m/s + (-10m/s^2)(2s)
vf = 5 m/s
#$&*
• During the first two seconds, what therefore is its average velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
vf + v0 / 2 = 5 m/s + 25 m/s / 2 = 15 m/s
#$&*
• How far does it therefore rise in the first two seconds?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
15 m/s * 2 s = `ds
`ds = 30 m
#$&*
• What will be its velocity at the end of a additional second, and at the end of one more additional second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Velocity at 3 seconds:
Vf = 25 m/s + (-10m/s^2)(3s)
Vf = -5 m/s (three seconds)
Velocity at 4 seconds:
Vf = 25 m/s + (-10m/s^2)(4s)
Vf = -15 m/s (four seconds)
#$&*
• At what instant does the ball reach its maximum height, and how high has it risen by that instant?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The Ball reaches its maximum height at final velocity of 0 m/s.
V = vo + at
0 = 25 m/s + (-10m/s^2)(t)
-25 m/s / -10 m/s^2 = t
t = 2.5 s (ball reaches its maximum position)
v^2 = vo^2 + 2a(y – y0)
y – y0 = -625 m/s / 2(-10 m/s^2)
y – y0 = 31. 25 m (ball reaches its maximum distance)

• What is its average velocity for the first four seconds, and how high is it at the end of the fourth second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The average velocity for the first four seconds = 0 m/s
15 m/s + 5 m/s +(-5 m/s) + (-15 m/s) / 4 = 0 m/s
The height at the end of the fourth second:
I want to say 0 m for the fourth seconds; however, here are my results:
V^2 = v0^2 + 2a(y – y0)
225 m/s = 625 m/s + 2(-10 m/s^2)(y – y0)
y – y0 = 20 m
#$&*
• How high will it be at the end of the sixth second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
vf = 25 m/s + (-10 m/s^2)(6s)
vf = -35 m/s
v^2 = vo^2 + 2ª(y – y0)
1225 m/s = 625 m/s + 2(-10 m/s^2)(y-y0)
600 m/s / -20 m/s^2 = y – y0
y – y0 = - 30 meters high at six seconds
