Explanation:
( initial velocity ) u = 120 m/s
( final velocity ) v = 0 m/s
( acceleration due to gravity ) = 9.8 m/s ( approx 10 m/s)
using,
1st equation of motion v = u + at
from above, t = ( v-u )/a
t =( 0-120 )/-10....... ( -10 is because acceleration is in opposite direction )
t = 12 second
now usin 2nd equation of motion
s = ut+ 1/2×at^2
s = 120×12+1/2×(-10)×144
s = 1440-720
s = 720 m
hence maximum height covered is 720 m
