A coach models the trajectory of a ball to find out how high the player is kicking the ball.

Reason: projectile motion includes a -½gt² term, giving a quadratic in time. The balloon rising at constant 2 ft/s is linear, the weekly quarter is linear (arithmetic), and doubling every month is exponential.
