Video Discussion: Throwing a Ball up to 2.0 Meters & Proving the Velocity at the Top is Zero

Name: Throwing a Ball up to 2.0 Meters & Proving the Velocity at the Top is Zero

Short Description: None Provided

In the previous lesson we dropped a ball from 2.0 meters above the ground and now we throw one up to a height of 2.0 meters. We do this in order to understand the similarities between the two events. Oh, and of course we draw some graphs. This is an Introductory Free-Fall Acceleration Problem
