The height (feet) of an object moving vertically is given by s = - 16t + 272t + 204, where t is in seconds. Find the object's velocity at t = 4, its maximum height and when it occurs, and its velocity when s = 0. The velocity of the object at t= 4 seconds is ft/second. (Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal.)

A bullet is fired straight up from a BB gun with initial velocity 1120 feet per second at an initial height of 8 feet. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t+8 to determine how many seconds it will take for the bullet to hit the ground. (That is, when will h=0 ?)
A man throws a ball into the air with a velocity of 96 ft/s. Use the formula h=16t2+v0t to determine when the height of the ball will be 48 feet. Round to the nearest tenth.
