The magnitude of the velocity of a projectile when it is at its maximum height above ground level is 10.0 m/s. (a) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the projectile 1.00 s before it achieves its maximum height? (b) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the projectile 1.00 s after it achieves its maximum height? If we take x = 0 and y = 0 to be at the point of maximum height and positive x to be in the direction of the velocity there, what are the (c) x coordinate and (d) y coordinate of the projectile 1.00 s before it reaches its maximum height and the (e) x coordinate and (f) y coordinate 1.0 s after it reaches its maximum height?

Question

The magnitude of the velocity of a projectile when it is at its
maximum height above ground level is 10.0 m/s. (a) What is the
magnitude of the velocity of the projectile 1.00 s before it achieves
its maximum height? (b) What is the magnitude of the velocity of
the projectile 1.00 s after it achieves its maximum height? If we
take x = 0 and y = 0 to be at the point of maximum height and positive
x to be in the direction of the velocity there, what are the (c) x
coordinate and (d) y coordinate of the projectile 1.00 s before it
reaches its maximum height and the (e) x coordinate and (f) y coordinate
1.0 s after it reaches its maximum height?
