Answer:
Explanation:
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s^2.
So to calculate the time it will take to make the ball stop(which btw means the ball now reach its greatest height), use the formula V1=V0+at. V1 is the final velocity(which is 0), V0 is the starting velocity(which is 30m/s), and the a(cceleration) is 9.8m/s^2.
(You can ignore the fact "at" is -30 instead 30, it's because the directions two velocity travel are opposite. )
We can now know the time it takes to make the ball stop just by the gravitational force is about 3 sec.
Use another formula S=1/2at^2, to find out the S(height) is 1/2*9.8*3^2=44.1, which is approximately D.45m .
