Question
"An object is shot straight up from the ground with an initial velocity of 20
m/s. How high above the ground is the object one second after it reaches its maximum height? Neglect air resistance." I got the maxiumum height of 20.41 m but I used it into the y(t) = y0 + v0t - 1/2gt^2 equation and I don't think I got it right :(

If the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°C, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to hear the sound of the splash 2.84 s after kicking the rock? m/s Need Help?
