  • Acceleration 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

To determine the total distance travelled by the stone  we will use  Third equation of motion,

Third equation of motion:

  

Where,    is the initial velocity,    is the acceleration,    is the initial velocity and    is the displacement.

Substitute the values 

 

Stone is thrown upwards. It will reach a maximum height and then come back original level from which it was thrown.

At maximum height, the velocity is zero.
