A ball is projected upward at time t = 0 s, from a point on a flat roof 10 m above the ground. The ball rises and then falls with insignificant air resistance, missing the roof, and strikes the ground

The initial velocity of the ball is Consider all quantities as positive in the upward direction. At time the vertical velocity of the ball is closest to A) 0 m/s.
B) +175 m/s.
C) +12 m/s.
D) -175 m/s.
E) -12 m/s.

Why is it thought that quasars probably spend only a fairly short time in their highly luminous phase?

A) because there aren't many quasars around today B) because there aren't any quasars closer than about a redshift of 1 C) because all quasars are at about the same epoch, narrowly defined in time D) because a black hole could not power a highly luminous quasar for more than a few million years E) because quasars are known to be the consumers of massive galaxies
