If an object is thrown straight upward with an initial speed of 8 m//s and takes 3 seconds to strike the ground, from what height was the object thrown ? |
Answer» Solution :The figure on the next page SHOWS that the displacement is down, so we call down the positive DIRECTION . Therefore, `a=+g and v_(0) = -8 m//s` (because up is the negative direction). We're given `a, v_(0)` and t, and we need to find `Delta s`. Since v is MISSING, we use Big Five #2.
