Answer:
Maximum height = 500 metres
Time = 4.2 seconds
Explanation:
Given:
- Initial velocity of the ball = 100 m/s
- Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²
To find:
- Maximum height reached by the ball
- Time taken for the ball to come back to the initial position
Maximum height = u²/2g
Maximum height = 100²/20
Maximum height = 10000/20
Maximum height = 500 metres
Now using second equation of motion:
S=ut +1/2 at²
500=100t+1/2 × 10 × t²
5t²+100t-500=0
By solving the above equation,
t = 4.2 seconds (approx)
