The average velocity is zero, since it returns to the place from which it was thrown.
It travels H = 5.2 m up and 5.2 m down.
It must have been thrown at initial speed
Vo = sqrt(2gH) = 10.1 m/s
The average speed is half that.
A student throws a ball vertically upward such that it travels 7.5 to its maximum height.If the ball is caught at the initial height 2.3 after being thrown, what is the ball’s average speed?
