A classic puzzle...

She either kicked it at a wall <em>exactly</em><em /> 10 foot in front of her, where the ball rebounded off the wall.

Or, she kicked the ball straight up, vertically, at a <em>90 degree angle,</em> where due to the law of gravity, which states that anything that goes up must come down, when the soccer ball reaches exactly 10 feet, it falls back down.
(Note: This is nearly impossible to achieve -- exactly 10 feet.)

A ball is thrown straight up. What will
Papessa [141]

Answer:

velocity at the top: 0 m/s

acceleration at the top: -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Assuming up is positive and down is negative;

The velocity of the ball at the top of its path will be 0 m/s and the acceleration will be negative.

The velocity is 0 m/s because the ball does not move at the top of its path, and it switches from a positive velocity to a negative velocity. It must go through 0 in order to go from positive to negative.

The acceleration, however, is always negative no matter where the ball is in its motion. This negative acceleration causes the ball to slow down as it reaches the top, and speed up as it reaches the bottom.

<u>Think about it:</u> If there wasn't a negative acceleration, and it was instead 0, the ball would never come back down and instead keep going in a straight line.
