A stone is thrown vertically up with an initial velocity of 4.9 m/s from the top of a building that is 52 m high. On its way down, it misses the top of the building and goes straight to the ground. Find a) its maximum height relative to the ground, b) its time of flight or total time in the air and c) its velocity before it reaches the ground.
