Answer:
The initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
time of flight of the ball, t = 2.93 s
acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
initial velocity of the ball, u = ?
The initial velocity of the ball is given by;
v = u + (-g)t
where;
v is the final speed of the ball at the given time, = 0
g is negative because of upward motion
0 = u -gt
u = gt
u = (9.8 x 2.93)
u = 28.714 m/s
Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s
