A ball is tossed upward at 15 meters / second from a height of 12 meters above the ground. Assume a uniform downward acceleration of 10 m/s^2 (an approximation within 2% of the 9.8 m/s^2 acceleration of gravity).
• How high does it rise and how long does it take to get to its highest point?
• How fast is it then going when it hits the ground, and how long after the initial toss does it first strike the ground?
• At what clock time(s) will the speed of the ball be 5 meters / second?
• At what clock time(s) will the ball be 20 meters above the ground?
• How high will it be at the end of the sixth second?
