If a ball’s height above ground over time can be described by parametric functions for its height in feet after being hit upward with initial velocity feet per second from initial height feet, what describes its vertical speed after rising for two seconds assuming no air resistance?
Vertical speed will be ft/s
Vertical speed will be ft/s
Vertical speed will stay constant at ft/s

If you increase the parameter 't' uniformly on a smooth continuous path described by parametric equations, what happens to the location of points on its graph?
They oscillate back and forth across a fixed point on the path.
They remain stationary at one point despite changes in 't'.
They leap randomly from one part of the path to another non-adjacent part.
They move smoothly along the path without jumps or breaks.
What describes the behavior of a particle moving along a path given by parametric equations if its speed increases without bound as time progresses?
Both parametric functions have horizontal asymptotes, limiting speed increase.
The rate of change with respect to time for either coordinate becomes unbounded.
The position vector remains constant while only direction changes over time.
The acceleration vector points in the opposite direction to motion, slowing it down.
What kind of discontinuity is present if the limits from both sides exist but are not equal?
Jump discontinuity
Point discontinuity
Infinite discontinuity
Removable discontinuity
