A ball is thrown upward with an initial speed, vo.
When it reaches the top of its flight, at a height h, a second ball is thrown at the same initial velocity.
sketch a displacement vs time graph for both balls.
where do the balls cross from the graph.
Find the height where the paths cross.

answers: above h/2 and 3/4h

please help

This is what I have got...
I am having trouble in the last part..
Though I have got h (max ht) = vo^2/g
