Determine the function that would represent a rock that was thrown upwards at 16 feet per second from a stand that is 1 feet tall based on the function above How long until object hits the ground?
From Pre-Calc it is known that the height of an object thrown upwards with an initial
of so off the ground is given by the function:
s (t)=-16 t + nt + so, where s (t) is the height of the object after t-seconds.
