Question

You are tossing popcorn straight up and catching it in your mouth at the moment each piece of popcorn reaches its peak height ,it's velocity is

Answer 1

The velocity of the popcorn will be zero.

• When a popcorn is tossed straight up and each piece is caught in mouth at the moment each piece it reaches the peak it will give a zero velocity.
• Essentially, zero velocity is no movement. What this means is that your a time location shift to b is zero, thus there will be zero velocity in the process and a downward acceleration.
