thanx. amm can i ask another thing? how about height??... when can we say that the displacement of a motion is negative if the forces discussed are those relevant to vertical direction... is it when it goes up or is it when it goes down that we can say it has negative height? thanx...
Homework Statement
a ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 80 ft/sec.
Homework Equations
how high is it at 3 seconds...?
The Attempt at a Solution
using the formula:h = Vo*t - 1/2 g*t2
where h as the height
Vo is the original velocity
g as the gravitational pull ...
Speed finder... help
