Question

A circus performer juggling while standing on a platform 15.0-m high tosses a ball directly upward into the air at a speed of 2.0 m/s. If it leaves his hand 0.5 m above the platform, what is the ball's maximum altitude?

If the juggler misses the ball, at what speed will it hit the floor? Ignore air friction.
