For this case we have the following equation:
 h (t) = at ^ 2 + v * t + h0
 Substituting values we have:
 h (t) = - 16 * t ^ 2 + 60 * t + 3
 We equate the equation to zero:
 -16 * t ^ 2 + 60 * t + 3 = 0
 We look for the roots of the polynomial:
 t1 = -0.04935053979258153
 t2 = 3.7993505397925817
 We are left with the positive root and round:
 t2 = 3.8 s
 Answer:
 
t = 3.8 s

Consider f and c below. f(x, y) = x2 i + y2 j c is the arc of the parabola y = 2x^2 from (−1, 2) to (0, 0)
aleksley [76]

(a) If there is a scalar function f(x, y) such that ∇ f(x, y) = x² i + y² j, then

∂f/∂x = x²

∂f/∂y = y²

Integrating both of these equations with respect to x and y (respectively) gives

f(x, y) = 1/3 x³ + g(y)

f(x, y) = 1/3 y³ + h(x)

Differentiating with respect to the other variable gives

∂f/∂y = g'(y) = y²

∂f/∂x = h'(x) = x²

so it follows that

f(x, y) = 1/3 x³ + 1/3 y³ + C

for some constant C.

(b) By the gradient theorem,

\displaystyle \int_C \nabla f \cdot d\vec r = f(0,0) - f(-1,2) = \boxed{-\dfrac73}
