You toss a racquetball directly upward and then catch it at the same height you released it 1.82 s later. assume air resistance

is negligible. (a) what is the acceleration of the ball while it is moving upward?

Neglecting air resistance, the acceleration of the ball is
the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² downward.

It doesn't matter what you toss, what it's mass is, what it weighs,
what color it is, how much it cost, what its shape or size is, how
fast you toss it, in what direction, or how long it's in the air.

Its horizontal acceleration is zero and its vertical acceleration
is 9.8 m/s² downward, from the moment it leaves your hand
until the moment somebody catches it or it hits the ground.

Answer:   A    Answers. Assuming that the terminal velocity doesn't change during the fall, then the kinetic energy would remain constant. However the terminal velocity decreases during the fall since the air becomes denser at lower altitudes.

Explanation:

What happens to the KE of an object when it slows down and heats up? - Quora. The kinetic energy goes down and the loss of the kinetic energy is through the production of heat energy. In real world this is due to friction, or an opposing force that decelerates the object, or a combination of both.

Atmosphere

Atmospheric gas from prehistoric eras is found trapped in glaciers in the form of bubbles. These gas bubbles are the basis of studying ice cores as they provide us with accurate estimates of the conditions of past climates. The bubbles allow us to determine the composition of atmospheric air, such as the carbon dioxide and methane concentrations, as well as allow us to determine air temperatures in the past.
