Answer:
The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial velocity u= 128 ft/sec
Equation of height
....(I)
(a). We need to calculate the maximum height
Firstly we need to calculate the time
From equation (I)
Now, for maximum height
Put the value of t in equation (I)
(b). The number of seconds it takes the object to hit the ground.
We know that, when the object reaches ground the height becomes zero
Hence, The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.
