A projectile is launched vertically upward at 40 m/s. If air resistance is negligible, its speed upon returning to its starting point is

1) less than 40 m/s.
2) 40 m/s.
3) more than 40 m/s.

All along the ball's trajectory, its acceleration is
4) g downward.
5) g at an angle.
6) zero.

If air resistance does affect motion, then the ball's speed upon returning to its starting point is
7) less than 50 m/s.
8) 50 m/s.
9) more than 50 m/s.
