Questions

Q3.1 No. Yes. The points could be widely separated. In this case, you can only determine the average
velocity, which is v = ∆x/∆t .
Q3.6 No. The acceleration is a maximum in the opposite direction.
Q3.10 The quantities (b) acceleration and (c) horizontal component of velocity remain constant for a projectile in the absence of air resistance.
Q3.11 Less than 45°, so that more horizontal distance can be covered early in the motion, before air resistance has time to have much effect.
