Question

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal

velocity of 40 m/s.
How long does it take for the ball to reach its highest point?

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.
