As the coin is tossed upward, its velocity decreases due to the pull of gravity working against it. At the peak of its ascent, the velocity momentarily drops to zero before it starts descending back down.

It will take 9.8m/s squared. that is my guesstimate.


what is the difference between ascending and descending tract?

An ascending tract goes upward. The descending tract goes downward.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 feetsec?

The velocity of the ball is 16 feet/sec when it is thrown upward.


Can an object have velocity and acceleration vectors that point in opposite directions?

Yes it can, and it's really easy. -- A stone tossed upward, before it peaks and starts falling, has upward velocity and downward acceleration. -- A car driving east and slowing for a stop-sign has eastward velocity and westward acceleration.


Is an upward moving object experiencing an upward force?

If the object is moving upwards with a constant velocity, there is only one arrow in the diagram, and it points straight down, due to gravity. If it has a force pulling upward on it, there are two arrows, one up, due to the force, and one down, again, due to gravity.


The colon travels upward from the cecum to the under surface of the liver?

The ascending colon extends from the cecum to the under surface of the liver where it turns to the left to become the transverse colon.


If air resistance can be neglected how does the acceleration of a ball that has been tossed straight upward compare with its acceleration if simply dropped?

If air resistance can be neglected, the acceleration of a ball tossed straight upward is the same as when it is dropped - both experience a gravitational acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2 downward. The initial velocity of the tossed ball would cause it to momentarily counteract the acceleration and then eventually slow down and reverse direction due to gravity.


What is ascending paper chromatograph?

Ascending paper chromatography is where a chromatogram rises, or ascends. The paper moves up because the solvent moves it in an upward direction.


Can the velocity of an object be negitive when its acceleration is positive?

That just means that the velocity and acceleration are in oppposite directions ... exactly the situation when a car is slowing down for a stop, or a ball is tossed upward and hasn't reached the peak yet.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 feet and seconds?

The initial velocity of the ball is 16 feet per second when thrown upward. The velocity decreases as the ball travels upward due to gravity until it reaches its peak and starts to fall back down.


What happens to the balls velocity while the ball is up vertically in the air?

The ball's velocity decreases as it moves upward due to the opposing force of gravity. At the peak of its trajectory, the velocity momentarily becomes zero before the ball starts descending and its velocity increases back in the downward direction.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft-sec?

The velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft/sec would be 16 ft/sec when it leaves the hand, but it will decrease due to gravity as it moves upward.
