What height is KE equal to PE for a 4kg ball thrown at 40m/s?

[zafer]

when a ball with 4 kg in thrown upwards at a velocity of 40m/s, at what height is the KE equal to PE?

Do you have any relevant equations yet?
Also, I assume it is being thrown from a y(0)= 0m?

It is like KEi+PEi=KEf+PEf and I need to find at which height they are equal

yes it is thrown from y=0m

\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2 + mgh_2
As the equation shows, they are equal at the height that takes half of the initial kinetic energy.

can you please solve it xcvxcvvc?

Solve what? You don't use the entire equation I wrote. You solve the equation I defined with my words.

Have you tried anything yet?

yes it should be h=40 m to be equal.
Because the KEi=3200 J and it should take the half of it to be equal,which means 1600J
