Question

This is a lab on projectile motion and its asking me to choose between two sets of kinematics equations, and finding xo and vo, but I haven't the slightest clue about what to choose or where to go from here.

please help!!! if someone can help me figure this out I can probably figure out the rest of my lab.

Sketch your graphs on the axes that follow, or print them and affix them over the axes. (Be sure that the graphs are labeled clearly.) x = x0 + vd v = v0 a= 0 x = x0 + vd + v = v0 + a = where x = position t = time v = instantaneous velocity = initial position at t = 0. (Tells you where the object was at the moment you started counting time.) V0 = initial velocity component at t = 0. (Tells you how fast the object was moving at the moment you started counting time.) Use your result from Activity 1-1 to determine which set of kinematic equation could be used to represent the motion of the basketball along the table where the x-axis is assumed to point along the line of motion of the ball. Explain your choice based on the graphs you obtained. Use your graphs from Activity 1-1, and the kinematic equations you chose in Question 1-5 to determine the values of x0 and vo. Explain how you found these values and what they represent. Activity 1-4: Kinematic Equations for Motion with Constant Acceleration Use your results from Activity 1-2 to determine which set of kinematic equations could be used to represent the motion of the basketball tossed straight upward. Explain your based on the graphs of your data. Use your graphs from Activity 1-2, and the kinematic equations you chose in Question 1-7 to determine the values of x0 and v0. Explain how you found these values and what they represent. Use your graphs from Activity 1-1 and 1-2 to determine the values of a for (a) the motion of the ball along the horizontal surface and (b) the motion of the ball based vertically upward. Explain how you determined these values.
