A ball is thrown down vertically with an initial speed of 20 m/s from a height of 60 m. Find (a) its speed just before it strikes the ground and (b) how long it takes for the ball to reach the ground. Repeat (a) and (b) for the ball thrown directly up from the same height and with the same initial speed. Take g = 10 m/s².

A rocket, initially at rest ,is fired vertically with an upward acceleration of 10m/s^2. At an altitude of 0.50km, the engine of the rocket cuts off. What is the maximum altitude it achieves?
"An object is shot straight up from the ground with an initial velocity of 20m/s. How high above the ground is the object one second after it reaches its maximum height? Neglect air resistance." I got the maxiumum height of 20.41 m but I used it into the y(t) = y0 + v0t - 1/2gt^2 equation and I don't think I got it right :(
14) If an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 80 ft/sec, its height after t sec is given byℎ(?) = 80? − 16?2 Find the maximum height attained by the object.

in a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9.0 m above him, releases a ball from rest. While still in flight, the acrobat catches the ball just as it reaches him. If he left the trampoline with a speed of 7.6 m/s, how long is he in the air before he catches the ball? (FYI I don't necessarily need the answer but I would really like to know how to solve it, as I don't know how)
