Which of the following statements are true about the motions depicted in the figures above? (Give ALL correct answers: B, AC, BCD.., or None )
The velocity of the ball in pictures C and F is decreasing
The velocity of the ball in pictures B, C and F is constant
The acceleration of the ball in pictures B and C is zero
The acceleration of the ball in pictures A and F is positive
The velocity of the ball in pictures B, C and E is increasing
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
1. False, C looks like its moving faster.
2. False, can't be constant, doesn't look the same at all.
3. False, C is clearly accelerating
4. False, A is negative
5. False, 2 are constant
Maybe I'm doing something wrong here? BEcause this isn't right.
