The initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.
<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>
The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;
During upward motion
h = vi - ¹/₂gt²
h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)
h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)
During downward motion
h = vi + ¹/₂gt²
h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²
h = 11.025 ----------- (2)
solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball
11.025 = vi - 44.1
vi = 11.025 + 44.1
vi = 55.125 m/s
Thus, the initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

#SPJ1
Consider a long train moving at speed v. Now consider a passenger throwing a ball inside this train, towards the back of the train, with same velocity v (but in the opposite direction of the train movement).
- A passenger inside the train will see the ball moving with speed v
- For an observer outside the train, however, the ball will appear as still. In fact, for him the ball will have a speed v (given by the movement of the train) -v (velocity of the ball but moving in the opposite direction), so the net velocity will be v+(-v)=0.
