Parabola remember that parabola equation is 4p(y-k) =(x-h)^2 for a verticl parabola p=distance from vertex to focus and from vertex to directix solve for p, k, h
y=0.6x^2
4p(y-0)=(x-0)^2 divide both sides by 4p (y-0)=1/4p times (x-0)^2 y=0.6x^2
1/(4p)=0.6 find p multiply 4p 1=2.4p divide 2.4 1/2.4=p h=0,k=0 vertex=0,0 opens up so go up to find focus (0,0) 0+1/2.4=1/2.4 focus is at (0,1/2.4)
Acceleration and velocity are two different things. The acceleration is the rate at which the velocity is increasing. So while the velocity very well may be increasing, the rate (acceleration) at which it is, is decreasing.
