A ball is thrown up with a speed of 15 m/s . How high wiil it go before it begins to fall ? `(g=9.8 m//s^(2)`

Answer» Please note that here the ball is going up against the gravity ,so the value of g is to be taken as negative .
Here Initial speed of ball u=15 /s
Final speed of ball ,v=0 (The ball stops ) Acceleration due to gravity `g= -9.8 m//s^(2)` (Retardation )
And Height h=? (to be calculated )
Now ,Putting al these values in the formula
`v^(2)=u^(2)+2gh `
we get : `(0)^(2)=(15)^(2)+2xx(-9.8) xx h`
0=225-19.6 h
19.6 h =225
`h=225/19.6`
h=11.4 m
Thus the ball will go the a maximum height of 11.4 meters before of begins to fall.
