Two identical metal balls are being held side by side at the top of a ramp. Alex lets one ball, \( A \), start rolling down the hill. A few seconds later, Alex’s partner, Bob, starts the second ball, \( B \), down the hill by giving it a push. Ball \( B \) rolls down an identical, parallel path to the first ball and passes it.

You throw a ball straight upward. It leaves your hand at \( 20 \) \( \text{m/s} \) and slows at a steady rate until it stops at the peak. The ball then comes back down, speeding up steadily until it hits the ground with the same speed it left your hand. Draw the velocity vs. time graph or explain it in terms of functions.
