Chapter 3, Problem 16CQ

A ball is thrown straight upward and then returns to the Earth. Sketch a graph of the speed (not velocity) of this ball against time. Where does the ball change direction? Explain. Indicate this point on your graph. Compare your graph to the graph of velocity versus time from the previous question.

How would you expect a velocity vs. time graph to look for a cart moving with a constant velocity? Make a rough sketch of the graph and explain your reasoning.  Write down an equation for the graph.  Explain what the symbols in each of the equations mean.  What quantities in these equations can you determine from your graph?
What is the average velocity of this displacement time graph.  My answer is 0.0833m/s because I am diving the final displacement of 2 metres by 24 seconds.Please keep in mind only use the whole number quanities in the graph such as in cooridinate-  (7,4.5)
Please solve and use sketches on velocity vs time and acceleration vs time graphs to make your case.
