Problema Solution

If a ball is thrown directly upward with a velocity of 40 m/s,its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by y=40t-16t^2.What is the maximum height attained by the ball?

Answer provided by our tutors

as the equation given is y=40t-16t^2 

it reaches max. pt at time 1.25 sec

so h max is 25m
