Answer:height above ground at which projectile have velocity

0.5v is (0.0375v^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Vf = Vi - gt

Where Vf is final velocity

Vi is initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

So, 0.5v = v - gt

t = 0.05v

Therefore height h = vt - 0.5gt^2

Subtitute t

h = 0.05v^2 - 0.0125v^2

h = 0.0375v^2
