Question
A projectile is lauched from the ground level with an velocity of v ^0 feet per second. Neglecting air resistance, it's height in feet t seconds after launch is given by s =-16t+v0t. Find the time(s) that the projectile will (a) reach height of 64 ft and (b) return to the ground when v 0=80 feet per second.
