A ball falls freely from rest at a height of 2 meters. Observations indicate that the ball reaches the ground in .64 seconds.

Based on this information what is its acceleration?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

vAve= 2/.64=3.125m/s

'ds=3.125*.64 = 2 meters

How can you get a if you don't have a v0 or a vf?

The ball falls from rest, so you know v0. It's zero.

Is this consistent with an observation which concludes that a ball dropped from a height of 5 meters reaches the ground in 1.05 seconds?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :Don't know

#$&*

Are these observations consistent with the accepted value of the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.8 m / s^2?

I don't understand how to get a if you don't have vf or v0
