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):
Assuming constant acceleration v_ave = (v_f+v_0)/2=(10+4)/2 = 14/2 = 7 cm/sec

• Without further information, why is this just a guess?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
Not sure if it has constant acceleration.

• 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):
‘ds=v_ave*’dt=7*3=21cm
#$&*
• At what average rate did its velocity change with respect to clock time during this interval?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> (start in the next line):
a_ave=’dv/’dt=(10-4)(cm/s)/3s=2 cm/s^2
