- Bob has just finished climbing a sheer cliff above a beach, and wants to figure out how high he climbed. All he has to use, however, is a baseball, a stopwatch, and a friend on the beach below with a long measuring tape. Bob is a pitcher and he knows that the fastest he can throw the ball is about vo = 34.5 m/s. Bob starts the stopwatch as he throws the ball (with no way to measure the ball's initial trajectory), and watches carefully. The ball rises and then falls, and after t₁ = 0.510 s the ball is once again level with Bob. Bob cannot see well enough to time when the ball hits the ground. Bob's friend then measures that the ball landed x = 128 m from the base of the cliff.
