*56. D A golf ball is dropped from rest from a height of 9.50 m. It hits the pavement, then bounces back up, rising just 5.70 m before falling back down again. A boy then catches the ball on the way down when it is 1.20 m above the pavement. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the total amount of time that the ball is in the air, from drop to catch.

3. In Physics, the height of a free-falling object at a given time t is given by h = –16t² + v,t + h., where v, is the initial velocity, and h, is the initial height. A student throws a ball upward from a height of 48ft, initially at 32 ft/s. What is the maximum height of the ball?
Alice shoots a pebble horizontally with her slingshot from a window that is at a height H and it lands a distance D away from the building.
