Question

during halftime of a football game, a slingshot launches T-shirts at the crows. A T-shirt is launched from a height of 6 feet with an initial upward velocity of 64 feet per second. The T-shirt is caught 44 feet above the field. How long will it take the T-shirt to reach its maximum height?

Answer 1

2 seconds

Explanation:

At max height, velocity = 0

u = 64 feet/sec

v = 0

a = -32

t = ?

v = u + at

0 = 64 - 32t

32t = 64

t = 2
