Answer:

The ball will return to the thrower's hand with a speed of 10 m/s

Explanation:

It is the motion when an object is projected upward, it moves in the opposite direction of the force of gravity.

The velocity is negative while the object moves up and positive while it moves downward due to upward motion.

Here,

A ball is thrown straight upward, u = 10 m/s

final velocity since ball momentarily stops at highest point, v= 0 m/s

According to Newton's 3rd equation of motion:

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

h = height

substituting the values,

2(-9.8)h = (0)² - (10)²

h = 100 / 19.6

h = 5.10 m/s

Now, we consider downward motion:

2gh = v² - u²

where,

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height = 5.10 m

v = return velocity of ball

u = 0 m/s

substituting the values,

2(9.8)(5.10 m) = V² - (0)²

V = √(99.96)

V = 9.99 m/s

V ≈ 10 m/s

Hence,

the ball will return to the thrower's hand with a speed of 10 m/s
