Projectile motion of a ball thrown

[QUOTE="haruspex, post: 4510310, member: 334404"] Another way is to put vertical speed = 0 at max height and use vf = vi + at. A good habit to get into is working entirely symbolically until the final step. That makes it much easier for others to follow what you are doing, avoids accumulation of rounding errors, and makes it easier to spot mistakes. And you certainly don't need to be handling so many significant figures. 3 or 4 is plenty. A couple of problems there. You are missing a factor t in the v0 term, and gravity does not generaly act horizontally. [/QUOTE]
