Are you familiar with how to calculate the slope of a straight line?

valid forge
#

nvm i got it

valid forge
weak arch
#

have you made any progress yourself so far?

valid forge
#

yea

weak arch
#

so what have you determined so far?

#

so that i can help you properly

valid forge
#

wait so the ball is going downhill so

#

is it b?

weak arch
#

yeah

#

lol

#

positive velocity would be acting up the hill

valid forge
#

lol im overthinking ๐Ÿ˜ญ

weak arch
#

so negative velocity acts down the hill

#

in C and D velocity is constant, so there's no acceleration

#

in A the velocity is increasing (positive velocity = up the hill)

#

therefore B must be the answer

valid forge
#

so for this

#

is it c

weak arch
#

You tell me

#

Can you explain your reasoning?

valid forge
weak arch
#

it travels down a highway with velocity 100km/h [West]

#

And what does positive velocity indicate, according to the question?

valid forge
#

east?

weak arch
#

Yup

valid forge
#

oh

weak arch
#

So by choosing C, you're saying it has a velocity of 100km/h east

valid forge
#

nvm so its d

weak arch
#

correct!

valid forge
#

yay

#

ok last question

#

im not sure where to start

weak arch
#

start with (i)

#

during the 4-5 second period, how would you describe the ball's movement?

#

and if you look at your options

#

for part (i) you only have stationary or uniform

#

which do you think it is and why?

valid forge
#

doe sstationary mean still

weak arch
#

yes

#

stationary means not moving

valid forge
#

ok so stationary

weak arch
#

perfect

#

so now we know it's either a or b

valid forge
#

ok

weak arch
#

can you figure out the rest by yourself now?

valid forge
#

i think so

weak arch
#

give it a go, and if you get stuck or are unsure, you can double check here ๐Ÿ˜Ž

valid forge
#

what does neither and the forward mean-

weak arch
#

look in the question

#

"with the ball moving in ii direction"

valid forge
#

so forward

weak arch
#

is the ball moving in "the forward" direction?

#

between seconds 4 and 5?

valid forge
#

yea

weak arch
valid forge
#

oh wait

weak arch
#

even if you were unsure, you could look at part iii and make sure that's also correct

valid forge
#

so neither

weak arch
#

correct

#

and just to be sure

#

does part iii check out for the option you were going to choose?

valid forge
#

yes

#

zero

weak arch
#

cool

#

then you're done

valid forge
#

yayy thanks
