A ball is thrown upward with initial velocity of the earth's surface 96 feet per second. What is the maximum height reached? A. A ball is thrown upward with initial velocity of the earth's surface 96 feet per second. What is the maximum height reached?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use newton's laws... v=0,u=96,a=-10 use third law you'll get h=v*v/2a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can we use integral for solved this problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Unnecessary but you can... a=-10 dv/dt=-10 Multiply and divide by dx, dx/dt=v so v dv/dx=-10 v dv = -10dx v^2/2=-10h putting limits for v as 96 to 0 you get the answer.

ITs basically the same all newtons laws are derived from these equations only.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we must convert feet to meter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand how 10 dx became h?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know that....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I integrated both sides limits are v to 0 for dv and 0 to h for dx so you get h.
