A person throws a ball upwards into the air with an initial velocity of 15.0 [m/s]. How long does it take (in seconds) for the ball to leave the hand, reach its highest point, and fall back to the hand? Ignore air resistance. Please do not include any units in your answer below. Type in only the numerical result. If you include units, your answer will be marked as incorrect.
