One of the fastest recorded pitches in major league baseball, thrown by Tim Lincecum in 2009, was clocked at 101.0 mi/h (Fig. P3.8). If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this veloc- ity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached home plate, 60.5 ft away? GIA NT Figure P3.8 Tim Lincecum throws a baseball.

Hello. I am working on a problem with motion. The questions asks me to calculate the maximum height (h1), total time (t2), and speed of a ball right before it hits the ground. The question states that A person is throwing a ball upward into the air with an initial speed Vo = 10m/s. Assume that the instant when the ball is released, the person's hand is at a height ho = 1.5m. The speed of the ball at its peak height is zero, and the question needs to be solved in ascending part and descending part. I don't understand how to solve for the maximum height. What is the correct formula to use and why? For other questions like this, I will be able to solve them if I know the formulas for the ascending of the ball and the descent of the ball as well as the explanation. Thank you. For the sake of the question, the ball is being thrown straight up.

Hank Huckleberry, who is the quarterback for the Kennesaw Kilowatts in the Metro Metric Football League, where all distances in the field are measured in meters. Hank throws the ball with an initial velocity of 16 m/s at an angle which is 48 degrees up from north. He releases the ball from a height of 1.8 m above the field. How long does it take from the time of the throw until it lands?
