Instruction:
Solve the following problems
**NOTE: Illustrations/Drawings and complete solutions must be included in your submissions.
1. A ball leaves a girl's hand with an upward velocity of 6 meters per second. Determine the MAXIMUM height of
the ball before it starts to fall down again. Also, determine how long will it take before the ball return to the girl's
hand.
2. Santa's sled has a constant acceleration of 2 meters per second squared and starts from REST. Determine the
distance (in meters) it will cover after 5 seconds.
3. If a car is traveling at 20 meters per second in a straight line, how many meters will it take the car to stop if it
decelerates at 5 meters per second squared.
