Problem:
A ball is thrown vertically upward, which is the positive direction. A little while later it returns to its point of release. The ball is in the air for a total time of 10 s. Note: Near the Earth's surface, g is approximately 9.80 m /s2.
(a1) What is the algebraic expression for the initial velocity v0 of the ball? Express your answer in terms of the ball's displacement y, its acceleration a in the vertical direction, and the elapsed time t.
---------
is this correct?:
Equation:
v0=(y-.5at^2)/t
v0=(0-490)/10
v0=(-490)/10
v0=-49
