A ball is thrown upwards with an initial velocity of 20m/s. How long will it take to reach its highest point? (Take g=10 m/s2)
To find the time it takes for the ball to reach its highest point, we can use the following formula:
v = v0 - g × t
At the highest point, the final velocity (v) is 0 m/s, so the equation becomes:
0 = v0 - g × t
Rearranging the equation to solve for time:
Where:
v0 = 20 m/s (initial velocity)
g = 10 m/s2
Substituting the values:
