2.3/2 = 1.15 seconds to go up
0 = Vi -4.9 t = Vi - 4.9*1.15
Vi = 5.365 m/s initial speed up
the second ball must have same initial vertical component of velocity = 5.365 m/s
Vi sin 60 = 5.365
so
Vi = 6.51 m/s
A ball is thrown straight upward and returns
to the thrower’s hand after 2.3 s in the air. A
second ball is thrown at an angle of 60◦ with
the horizontal.
At what speed must the second ball be
thrown so that it reaches the same maximum
height as the first? The acceleration of gravity
is 9.8 m/s
