I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!

A tennis ball was thrown straight up with initial velocity of 22.5 m/s. How high does the ball rise

kiruha [24]

Answer:

$h_m=25.8\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards</u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up without taking into consideration friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

$\displaystyle h_m=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}$

The tennis ball was thrown straight up with a speed of v0=22.5 m/s. The acceleration of gravity is g=9.81\ m/s^2, thus:

$\displaystyle h_m=\frac{22.5^2}{2\cdot 9.81}$

$\mathbf{h_m=25.8\ m}$
