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):

v_avg = (10cm/sec + 4cm/sec) * 0.5 = 7cm/sec

#$&*

Without further information, why is this just a guess?

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

Because more information is needed to be accurate.

#$&*

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):

21cm (multiply 'ddistance by 'dvelocity)

#$&*

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

this interval?

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

2cm / sec^2

#$&*

10 minutes
