A ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 98 m/s. if it takes 10 seconds to reach the highest point then the acceleration of the ball is:

Correct answer: D. -9.8 m/s

  • A. 9.8 m/s²
  • B. 980 m/s
  • C. 98 m/s²
  • D. -9.8 m/s

Explanation

Using the first equation of motion: v = u + at final velocity(v) =0m/s initial velocity (u) =98m/s time (t) = 10 acceleration (a) = ? 0=98+10a -98=10a a=-9.8m/s²
