You are rolling on a skateboard with a constant velocity of 12 m/s. As you are moving you toss a baseball straight up into the air with a vertical speed of 25 m/s. How long will it take the ball to land back in your hand? How high will the ball go before it falls back down?

Answer :

Ick! Word problems! They suck. Okay so first of all you want to narrow it dow the equation.


Step 1. What are the numbers? (In this case 12 m/s and 25 m/s)

Step 2. Are you multiplying, dividing? (In this case your dividing)

Step 3. Divide.

I hope that helps.
