A ball thrown up vertically returns to the thrower after 6 s find the velocity with which it was thrown up, the maximum height it reaches and its position after 4s.
Answers
(a) Consider,
upward gravity = -9.8 m/s2
Total time (to and fro)= 6 s, so, upward journey = 6/2 = 3 s
Initial velocity (u) = ?
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
From First equation of motion,
Final velocity = Initial velocity +gt
or, 0 = u + (-9.8 X3)
or, u = 29.4 m/s
So, The velocity at which ball is thrown in the upward direction is 29.4 m/s.
(b) the maximum height (hmax) is reached by a ball
Second equation of motion
s = ut + 1/2 gt2
here s = the maximum height (hmax)
or , hmax =(29.4 X 3) + 1/2 (-9.8)(3)2
hmax = 44.1 m
(c) Position of the ball after 4s is
From Second equation of motion
s = ut + 1/2 gt2
or, s = (29.4X4) + 1/2 X (-9.8)(4)2
or, s = 117.6 - 78.4 = 39.2 m

_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--
_______________________
The ball takes a total of 6 s for its upward and downward journey. (Time of ascent is equal to the time of descent.)
Hence, it has taken 3 s to reach at the maximum height.
v = 0 m/s
g = −9.8 ms−2
Using equation of motion,
v = u + at
⇒0 = u + (−9.8 × 3)
⇒ u = 9.8 × 3 = 29.4 m/s
Hence, the ball was thrown upwards with a velocity of 29.4 m/s.
_________________________
Let the maximum height attained by the ball be h.
u = 29.4 m/s
v = 0 m/s
g = −9.8 ms−2 (upward direction)
Using the equation of motion,
s = ut +1/2 gt^2
⇒ hℎ = 29.4 × 3 −1/2 × 9.8 × 32
⇒ ℎh = 44.1 m
Hence, the maximum height is 44.1 m.
_________________________
Ball attains the maximum height after 3 s. After attaining this height, it will start falling downwards.
In this case,
u = 0 m/s
Position of the ball after 4 s − 3 s = 1 s can calculate by Using the equation of motion,
s= ut +1/2gt^2
⇒ h= 0 × 1 +1/2 × 9.8 × 12
⇒ h= 4.9 m
Now, total height = 44.1 m This means, the ball is 39.2 m (44.1 m − 4.9 m) above the ground after 4 seconds.
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
