An object is thrown vertically upward from the ground and is seen to pass the top of a building with a speed of 15 m/s. If height of the building is 30 m: (a) With what velocity was the object thrown from the ground? (b) What is the maximum height reached by this object? (c) When will the object reach the ground again?arrow_forwardA man in the back row of 1510 of a theatre wishes to hit a statue in front of the theatre screen with a ball. The statue stands 2 meters tall and the baller is sitting in an elevated seat, 10 meters above the floor the statue stands on. The horizontal distance from the spit baller to the statue is 10 meters. The time of flight of the spit ball is 0.6 seconds given an initial ball speed of 15m/s. Find the velocity of the ball when it is fired.arrow_forward
