Q1KinematicsForcesFree sample

A ball rolls down a slope, as shown in Fig. 1.1.

The metre rule shows the position of the ball at times $t = 0$ , $1.0\text{ s}$ , $2.0\text{ s}$ and $3.0\text{ s}$ .

Fig. 1.1

(a)

Explain how Fig. 1.1 shows that the ball is accelerating.

(b)

Calculate the average speed of the ball between $t = 1.0\text{ s}$ and $3.0\text{ s}$ .

average speed = ______

(c)

Two of the forces that act on the ball are air resistance and weight.

State what, if anything, happens to these forces as the ball accelerates.

air resistance: ______
weight: ______

(d)

Explain why, if the slope is long enough, the ball eventually reaches a constant speed.
