Calculating Vertical Motion: Am I on the Right Track?

[QUOTE="haruspex, post: 4672948, member: 334404"] Why are you using half the time from part (a)? That will give you the maximum height, no? The question does not ask for that. You are given initial speed, acceleration, distance, and you are asked for final speed. What SUVAT equation connects those four? (Btw, you dropped a factor of 10 in the first term of the calculation, giving you a negative maximum height. You should have realized that meant you'd made a mistake, but instead you just changed the sign.) [/QUOTE]
