The acceleration of the ball would be due to the downward force of gravity, 9.8m/s^2. In order to find the displacement given that interval of time, you have to use the corresponding kinematic formula:
The initial velocity was given, the time was given, and the acceleration was given. Therefore:
To find the required time given a desired final velocity, we can use:
The direction of the acceleration is in the same direction as the net force causing it. F = ma is actually a vector equation in which f and a are both vectors and m is a scalar constant.
The oldest lunar rock samples are approximately 4.4 billion years old and composed of anorthosite, a mineral that crystallizes and rises to the top of a lava ocean.
