Answer;

  = 8.624 m/s

Explanation;

Time of flight= 4s. (0.88 s to reach highest point and 0.88 s to come back from highest point.)

Neglecting air resistance, the time of ascend is equal to time of descend for projectile.

It means the ball is at the highest point at time 0.88 s.

Using the equation;

V = Vo + at

Where, V is the final velocity which is Zero, Vo is the initial velocity ,g is the gravitational acceleration, 9.8 m/s², t is the time.

V = Vo - gt ;   g is negative because it is against the gravity .

Vo = gt

     = 9.8 m/s² × 0.88 s

     = 8.624 m/s

The upward force exerted on an object falling through air is _____.
stira [4]

(C) Air Resistance

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object falls through air, air resistance acts on it in upward direction. When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - the speed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.
