I just need the practice problem solved with work shown. The rest of the image provides the information needed to solve the problem. The correct answer is also provided to check work. (The practice problem is on the second image at the bottom)

EXAMPLE 2.11 A ball on the roof
Now let's examine the more complex case of a ball being thrown vertically upward. Even though the ball
is initially moving upward, it is, nevertheless, in free fall and we can use Equations 2.12, 2.13, and 2.14
to analyze its motion. Suppose you throw a ball vertically upward from the flat roof of a tall building. The
ball leaves your hand at a point even with the roof railing, with an upward velocity of 15.0 m/s. On its way
back down, it just misses the railing. Find (a) the position and velocity of the ball 1.00 s and 4.00 s after it
leaves your hand; (b) the velocity of the ball when it is 5.00 m above the railing; and (c) the maximum height
reached and the time at which it is reached. Ignore the effects of the air.

CHAPTER 2 Motion Along a Straight Line
SOLUTION
SET UP As shown in Figure 2.27, we place the origin at the level of
the roof railing, where the ball leaves your hand, and we take the posi-
tive direction to be upward. Here's what we know: The initial position
Yo is zero, the initial velocity voy (y component) is +15.0 m/s, and the
acceleration (y component) is a, = -9.80 m/s².
The ball actually moves straight up
then straight down; we show
a U-shaped path for clarity.,

SOLVE What equations do we have to work with? The velocity v, at
any time t is
Vy = Voy + ayt = 15.0 m/s + (-9.80 m/s²)t.
The position y at any time t is
y = voyt + ¼a₂t² = (15.0 m/s)t + (-9.80 m/s²)t².
(15.0 m/s)2 + 2(-9.80 m/s²) (y - 0).
Part (a): When t = 1.00 s, the first two equations give y
=
Vy
+5.20 m/s. The ball is 10.1 m above the origin (y is positive),
and it has an upward velocity (v is positive) of 5.20 m/s (less than the
initial velocity of 15.0 m/s, as expected). When t = 4.00 s, the same
equations give
= +10.1m,
y = -18.4 m, uy = -24.2 m/s.
Thus, at time t = 4.00 s, the ball has passed its highest point and is
3.4 m below the origin (y is negative). It has a downward velocity (v, is
gative) with magnitude 24.2 m/s (greater than the initial velocity, as
e should expect). Note that, to get these results, we don't need to find
highest point the ball reaches or the time at which it is reached. The
nations of motion give the position and velocity at any time, whether
ball is on the way up or on the way down.

Part (b): When the ball is 5.00 m above the origin, y
we use our third equation to find the velocity u, at this point:
127 m²/s²,
v² = (15.0 m/s)² + 2(-9.80 m/s²) (5.00 m)
U₂ = ± 11.3 m/s.
passes the point y
We get two values of Uy, one positive and one negative. That is, the ball
+5.00 m twice, once on the way up
and again on
the way down. The velocity on the way up is +11.3 m/s, and on the
way down it is -11.3 m/s.
Part (c): At the highest point, the ball's velocity is momentarily zero
(vy=0); it has been going up (positive v,) and is about to start going
down (negative v.). From our third equation, we have
0 = (15.0 m/s)² - (19.6 m/s²)y,

11.5 m. We can now
and the maximum height (where uy = 0) is y =
find the time when the ball reaches its highest point from Equation 2.12,
setting v, = 0:
y (m)
Alternative Solution: Alternatively, to find the maximum height, we
may ask first when the maximum height is reached. That is, at what
= 0 when t = 1.53 s. Substi-
= 0? As we just found, vy
value of t is vy
tuting this value of t back into the equation for y, we find that
y = (15 m/s)(1.53 s) + (−9.8 m/s²) (1.53 s)² = 11.5 m.

REFLECT Although at the highest point the velocity is momentarily
zero, the acceleration at that point is still -9.80 m/s². The ball stops
for an instant, but its velocity is continuously changing, from positive
values through zero to negative values. The acceleration is constant
throughout; it is not zero when uy = 0!
Figure 2.28 shows graphs of position and velocity as functions of
time for this problem. Note that the graph of uy versus t has a constant
negative slope. Thus, the acceleration is negative on the way up, at the
highest point, and on the way down.

for the ball to hit the ground? What velocity is the ball traveling at when
it hits the ground? Answers: 4.44 s, -28.5 m/s.
