A ball is thrown vertically upward. (a) What are its velocity and acceleration when it reaches its maximum altitude? (b) What is the acceleration of the ball just before it hits the ground?

A ball is thrown vertically upward. What is the acceleration of the ball at the top of its trajectory? Assume no air resistance and that down is the negative direction in the vertical. 9.80 m/s2 0 m/s2 -9.80 m/s2 It depends on how high the ball goes and is variable depending on the situation If the maximum height the ball reached in the previous problem is 50.0 m, what must have been its initial velocity? What kind of problem is this? What is the hidden information? What equations can you use in this problem? List them here and highlight variables for which you have values by circling and draw a square around what you want to find. Do you have any equations containing the variable for which you want to solve? Can you solve it?
