- A man throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 96 ft/s. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t to determine when the height of the ball will be 48 feet. Round to the nearest tenth.arrow_forwardA bullet is fired straight up from a BB gun with initial velocity 1120 feet per second at an initial height of 8 feet. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t+8 to determine how many seconds it will take for the bullet to hit the ground. (That is, when will h=0 ?)arrow_forwardA man throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 96 ft/sec. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t to determine when the height of the ball will be 48 feet. Round to the nearest tenth of a second.arrow_forward
