Homework Statement
A 0.20 kg ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial speed of 19 m/s. Find the momentum of the ball at the following locations.
(a) at its maximum height
(b) halfway to its maximum height
Variable:
ball = .2kg
Vi = 19 m/s
Homework Equations
p = mv
The Attempt at a Solution
a) since the object is at max height the velocity is 0. therefore momentum is also 0.
b)This is where I ger lost...
I tried using the equation for momentum but I am not sure on how to solve for velocity.
My teacher said something about height being = to v^2 but he said this quickly and not sure what the usefulness of that is...
It would be greatly appreciated if I could get help ASAP
