kinematics-- ball thrown
A ball is thrown upward from the edge of a building that is 100m tall. On its way back down, the ball just misses the building, falling to the ground below. The elapsed time between the throw and the ball hitting the ground is 6.5 sec.
A) The initial speed of the ball
B) Position and speed of the ball after 1 sec and after 4 secs.
C) The maximum height reached by the ball, measured above the ground.
*Ok, I've worked a few problems where the object is dropped directly from the top of the building but none where the object is actually thrown upward!*
