Thrown Down A basketball is bounced straight down from a height of 1.2m with an initial velocity of 15m/s down. a)What is the final velocity of the ball? b)For how much time was the ball falling? Answer: a)-15.8m/s, b) 0.08s
Going Up • Object is thrown upwards with an initial velocity in the +y direction • Motion in y axis constant acceleration • g=-10m/s2 • Symmetry
