Answer:

t = 4.08 s

Step-by-step explanation:

if the body is thrown upward, it has negative gravity. Knowing through the International System that the earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s²

Data:

  • Vo = 40 m/s
  • g = -9.8 m/s²
  • t = ?

Use formula:


  • \boxed{\bold{t=(-(V_(0)))/(g)}}

Replace and solve:


  • \boxed{\bold{t=(-(40(m)/(s)))/(-9.8(m)/(s^(2)))}}

  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{t=4.08\ s}}}

Time taken by it to reach max height is 4.08 seconds.

Greetings.
