Answer:

-14.2m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the ball = 25m/s

Time = 4s

Unknown:

Final velocity of the ball = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

v = u - gt

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

v = 25 - (9.8 x 4) = -14.2m/s
