A tennis ball is tossed upward with a speed of 3.0 m/s. We can ignore air resistance. What is the velocity of the ball 0.40 s after the toss?

Hello, The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).

Explanation: The equation for the velocity of an object thrown upward is the following:

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

v = velocity of the ball.

v0 = initial velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

t = time.

To find the velocity of the ball at t = 0.40 s, we have to replace "t" by 0.40 s in the equation:

v = v0 + g · t

v = 3.0 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 0.40 s

v = -0.92 m/s

The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).

Hope That Helps

we can see how the government has failed them.
