A.6.6.1 Sky Bound

A cannon is 10 feet off the ground. It launches a cannonball straight up with a velocity of 406 feet per second (that is about 277 miles per hour). Imagine that there is no gravity and that the cannonball continues to travel upward with the same velocity. Complete the table below with the heights of the cannonball at different times, then write an equation to model the distance in feet, d, of the ball t seconds after it was fired from the cannon if there was no gravity. What type of relationship is this?
