Question
You throw a ball vertically upward. When you let go of the ball, it has a kinetic energy Ka (assume the
ball has zero gravitational potential energy at the point where you let go). Without air drag, the ball
reaches a maximum height h above the point where you let go. You throw the ball again, this time
giving it a kinetic energy of Ko/2. What will be the maximum height of the ball (again without air
drag)? (Note that the square root of 2 Is approximately 1.4.)
