An egg is thrown nearly vertically upward from a point near the cornice of a tall building. It just misses the cornice on the way down and passes a point a distance 50.0 m below its starting point at a time 5.00 s after it leaves the thrower's hand. Air resistance may be ignored.
I tried a lot of methods but I keep getting it wrong. I am doing this online so it tells me weather the answer is right or wrong. I tried finding the time it takes to travel the 50m and then subtracting that from the total time to see how long it was in the air from the origin to the time it reaches the origin again. But that did not seem to work. Can someone point me in the right direction. I don't want the answer just give me some hints.
Thanks
