Suppose you throw a baseball straight up into the air at t = 0. The ball reaches a maximum height of 22.5 meters above its starting position. Ignore air resistance for this problem. (a) What was the initial velocity of the ball at the moment it left your hand? Hint: the velocity goes to zero at the highest point of the motion. (b) At what time (in seconds) did the ball reach its maximum height? (c) If you threw the ball up into the air with double the initial velocity that you found in part (a), how high would it go?
A cargo plane is moving with a horizontal velocity of v = +248 m/s at a height of y = 990 m above level ground as shown in the
figure below when it releases a package. Ignoring air resistance, how much time, in seconds, will it take the package to reach the
ground? (Express your answer to the nearest tenth of a second.)
