Answer:
2.605m
Explanation:
Using the formula for calculating Range (distance travelled in horizontal direction)
Range R = U√2H/g
U is the speed = 4.8m/s
H is the maximum height = ?
g is the acc due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
R = 3.5m
Substitute into the formula and get H
3.5 = 4.8√2H/9.8
3.5/4.8 = √2H/9.8
0.7292 = √2H/9.8
square both sides
0.7292² = 2H/9.8
2H = 0.7292² * 9.8
2H = 5.21
H = 5.21/2
H = 2.605m
Hence the height of the ball from the ground is 2.605m
