Owen throws a baseball straight upward. We can ignore air resistance.
What is true about the acceleration and velocity of the ball on its way up?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is constant and equal to -9.81 m/s² (acting downwards)

The velocity of the ball reduces at a constant rate with time on its way up

Explanation:

The motion of the ball upwards is described by the following equation;

v = u - g × t

v² = u² - 2 × g × s

Where;

v = The final velocity of the ball

u = The initial velocity of the ball

g = The acceleration due to gravity = Constant

s = The height of the bass after a given time, t

t = The time in which the ball is rising

Therefore, the acceleration of the ball = The acceleration due to gravity  (Constant) = -9.81 m/s²↓

From v = u - g × t = u - 9.81 × t , the velocity of the ball reduces at a constant rate with time on its way up.

Answer:

Acceleration remains constant and velocity decreases
