1)v=v0 + at
2)x-x0=v0*t -.5at^2
The Attempt at a Solution
I solved for V=3.83 m/s then i substituted that into the second equation and came out with time spent at top=.0287s and at the bottom=.753s
I only 3 more tries to get the problem right but I am trying to figure what I am doing wrong and how to solve it.
