A ball is thrown straight up into the air with a velocity of 12 m/s. Draw a motion diagram for the ball and then give as much quantities information as you can about the motion.

Question

I know you guys can draw anything on this platform. But can you lead me to answer by giving directions.

Thanks!

Answer 1

The acceleration is constant, which means the ball is slowing down with time at a constant rate.
velocity-time graph

velocity starts at some V, then decreases linearly to zero (at the top), and continues down on the same line as it descends.
it ends at v=-12m/s.
position time: starts at zero, increases on a parabola (h=vi*t-1/2 g t^2) until the top (when velocity is zero), then decreases on the other side of the parabola until hf=0 at v=-12
