As a person or meteor falls to Earth, there is a stretch of time, where the object experiences acceleration due to Earth's gravity. Let's say that the object starts from rest and only experiences acceleration due to Earth's gravity, what is its speed after 1s? 35? 10s? What do we know about the signs of velocity and acceleration? Do they point in the same direction or in opposition to one another? Say that the ball left the racket at a horizontal velocity of 30 m/s and the racket was held 1.25m from the ground. How long will it take the ball to hit the ground and how far did the ball project horizontally? Assume there is no air resistance and the ball encounters no obstructions.
