A ball is thrown upwards with a speed of 20 m/s off a 5-meter-high balcony. How fast is it falling just before it hits the floor below the balcony? We want to show that the answer does not depend on whether we choose +y to be up or to be down. When an object is in free-fall, its acceleration is g=10 m/s²2 down. а. Take +y to be up. VWhat are the values of voy,ay and Ay in this case? b. Take +y to be down. What are the values of voy, avy, and Ay in this case? Only one of the constant acceleration kinematics equations do not involve time. vž = vžy +2 a,Ay. Solve for С. %3D the speed |vl just before the ball hits the floor using +y up and using +y down and show you get the same answer.
