I drop a baseball from the top of a 18m window, somebody right below me throws their own baseball straight up at the same time. Their snowball leaves their hand 2.2m above the ground with a speed of 10.1m/s. When I dropped the baseball it was from rest. Create a expression that shows the position of each baseball as a function of time, find when the baseballs are at the same position.
