Given :

Initial velocity of ball = 20m/s

Acc. due to gravity = 10m/s²

To Find :

Total distance covered by ball.

Solution :

★ For a body thrown vertically upward, g is taken negative.

Since acceleration due to gravity has constant magnitude throughout the motion, we can apply equation of kinematics to solve this question.

First of all we need to find maximum upward distance covered by the ball.

Applying third equation of motion;

➠ v² - u² = 2gH

  • v final velocity
  • u initial velocity
  • g denotes acceleration
  • H denotes height

At maximum point, v = 0

➠ 0² - 20² = 2(-10)H

➠ H = -400/-20

H = 20m

Maximum height attained by the ball is 20m.

Total distance covered by ball :-

⭆ d = upward + downward

⭆ d = 20 + 20

d = 40 m
