A ball is thrown from 4 feet off the ground with a vertical velocity of 30 feet per second.
Is the ball at its maximum height after 1 second? In two or more complete sentences, explain how you know whether or not the ball is at its maximum height.
A ball is at it maximum height when its velocity is zero. y = 4+30t - 16t^2 is the formula, where V = V(0) -32t 0 = 30- 32t t = 15/16 seconds when its velocity is zero. It is not at its maximum height but is falling.
