- a. Determine the velocity v of the stone after t seconds
- b. When does the stone reach its highest point?
- c. What is the height of the stone at the highest point?
- d. When does the stone strike the ground?
- e. With what velocity does the stone strike the ground?
- f. On what intervals is the speed increasing?
