Chapter 2, Problem 64P
A ball is shot vertically upward from the surface of another planet. A plot of y versus t for the ball is shown in Fig. 2-36, where y is the height of the ball above its starting point and t = 0 at the instant the ball is shot. The figure’s vertical scaling is set by ys = 30.0 m. What are the magnitudes of (a) the free-fall acceleration on the planet and (b) the initial velocity of the ball?
