Effect of Air Resistance on the Speed of a Thrown Ball
I understand that in the absence of air resistance, if a ball is thrown vertically upward with a certain initial speed, on returning to its original level it will have the same speed. But when air resistance is a factor, will the ball be moving faster, the same or more slowly than its...- sammyj

The instantaneous velocity of a freely falling object
What is the instantaneous velocity of a freely falling object 10 s after it is released from a position of rest? What is its average velocity during this 10 s interval? How far will it fall during this time? I had asked a few friends for help and I keep getting mixed answers. v = gt 98m/s...- sammyj
