Starting at rest (on a spaceship), an object falls 1,600 feet towards the Earth (acceleration = 32 feet per second2, in the vacuum of space). Neglecting the possible effects of air friction, if the final velocity of the object is 320 feet per second (vf) when it hits Mount Everest, how long was the fall? 2 seconds 4 seconds 6 seconds 8 seconds 10 seconds

Using the above “mean-speed theorem”, calculate the average velocity of a car with constant acceleration from 0 km/hour (initial speed) to 80 km/hour (final speed) over a 5-minute period of time. average velocity over 5 minutes = 16 kilometers/hour average velocity over 5 minutes = 20 kilometers/hour average velocity over 5 minutes = 24 kilometers/hour average velocity over 5 minutes = 32 kilometers/hour average velocity over 5 minutes = 40 kilometers/hour
The “mean-speed theorem” for calculating average velocity under constant acceleration, developed by Thomas Bradwardine and the Mertonian Calculators at Oxford University, is expressed algebraically as: density = weight/volume (m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2) C. (vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf) s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2) velocity = distance/time
