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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v_f = v_0 + a*`dt
v_f = 25 - 10(1) = 15 m/s
#$&*
What will be its velocity at the end of two seconds?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v_f = 25 - 10(2) = 5 m/s
#$&*
During the first two seconds, what therefore is its average velocity?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
vAve = (v_f + v_0) / 2 = (25 + 5) / 2 = 15 m/s
#$&*
How far does it therefore rise in the first two seconds?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
15 m/s * 2 s = 30 m
#$&*
What will be its velocity at the end of a additional second, and at the end of one more additional second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v_f = 25 - 10(3) = - 5 m/s = 5 m/s downward
v_f = 25 - 10(4) = -15 m/s = 15 m/s downward
#$&*
At what instant does the ball reach its maximum height, and how high has it risen by that instant?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v_0 = 25, v_f = 0
-10 = -25 / `dt, `dt = 2.5 s
`ds = vAve * `dt = 12.5 * 2.5 = 31.3 m
#$&*
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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
vAve = (25 + -15) / 2 = 5 m/s
`ds = 5 m/s * 4 s = 20 m above where it was tossed
#$&*
How high will it be at the end of the sixth second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
v_f = 25 - 10(6) = -35 m/s
vAve = -5 m/s
`ds = -5 * 6 = -30 m = 30 m below where it was tossed

Very good responses. Let me know if you have questions.
At what clock time(s) will the ball be 20 meters above the ground?
How high will it be at the end of the sixth second?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
`ds = 8 m
v_0 = 15 m/s
a = -10 m/s^2
v_f = sqrt(15^2 + (2)(-10)(8)) = 8 m/s
-10 = -7 * `dt, `dt = 1.4 s
v_f = 15 - 10(6) = -45 m/s
vAve = -30 m/s
`ds = -30 * 6 = -180 m from initial

Your work looks good. Let me know if you have any questions.
