For each situation state which of the five quantities v0, vf, `ds, `dt and a are given, and give the value of each.

• A ball accelerates uniformly from 10 cm/s to 20 cm/s while traveling 45 cm.

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

v0 = 10 cm/s

vf = 20 cm/s

'ds = 45 vm

#$&*

• A ball accelerates uniformly at 10 cm/s^2 for 3 seconds, and at the end of this interval is moving at 50 cm/s.

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

a = 10 cm/s^2

'dt = 3 seconds

vf = 50 cm/s

#$&*

• A ball travels 30 cm along an incline, starting from rest, while accelerating at 20 cm/s^2.

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

'ds = 30 cm

v0 = 0 cm/s

a = 20 cm/s^2

#$&*

Then for each situation answer the following:

• Is it possible from this information to directly determine vAve?

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

For the first situation you can determine vAve directly by (vf + v0) /2.

For the second situation you can determine vAve directly, but you will have to calculate v0 first from the equation a = 'dv / 'dt = (vf - v0) / 'dt. After you obtain v0 then you can calculate vAve.

For the third situation you can't determine vAve directly.

#$&*

• Is it possible to directly determine `dv?

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

For the first situation you can determine 'dv directly by vf -v0.

For the second situation you can determine 'dv directly by the equation 'dv = a * 'dt.

For the third situation you can't determine 'dv directly.
