Homework Statement


Two balls are are released from a table top of height H = 3m at the same time. The green ball is given an initial velocity v0 = 6 m/s in the downward direction, while the red ball is given an initial velocity v0 = 6 m/s in the upward direction.
How long does it take for the red ball to reach the floor?
Which velocity would be greater when it hits the floor?

Homework Equations


v^2=v0^2+2a(x-x0)
