When the effect of aerodynamic drag is included, the y‐acceleration of a baseball moving vertically upward is au = −g − kv2, whi
le the acceleration when the ball is moving downward is ad = −g + kv2, where k is a positive constant and v is the speed in meters per second. If the ball is thrown upward at 30 m/s from essentially ground level, compute its maximum height h and its speed vf. upon impact with the ground. Take k to be 0.006 m−1 and assume that g is constant.
