When a ball is tossed vertically upward then it moves under the force of gravity and there is no other force acting on ball. Drag acting on ball is assumed insignificant . During upward motion, ball moves against the gravity and its velocity keep on decreasing till it becomes zero at maximum point of the trajectory. So The velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward.

A2While an object near the earth's surface is in free fall, its

velocity increases A free fall -state of falling where the only force acting on the object is the force due to gravity. -An object in free fall experiences a constant acceleration called the acceleration due to gravity. The value of this acceleration is: g=9.8m/s2g=9.8m/s2 The acceleration of an object is described as the rate of change of velocity of the object. A constant acceleration in the downward direction implies a continuously increasing velocity of the object in the downward direction.

A2 A person leans over the edge of a cliff and throws a rock upward at 4.9 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, two seconds later the rock's speed is

vi=4.9 m/s initial speed of the rock t=2 s time g=9.8 m/s^2 acceleration due to gravity For this problem, we will set the positive y-axis to be directed upwards. Since, acceleration due to gravity is directed downwards then it will be designated with a negative sign. Solving for the final speed of the rock after 2 seconds, vf=vi+at=vi−gt=4.9ms−9.8m/s2(2 s)=−14.7m/s The negative sign implies that the rock is going down 2 seconds later.
