the problem: "a ball is thrown straight upward with a velocity of 15m/s. how high does it go?" i need help with how to go about solving this, i started out with drawing velocity and acceleration graphs but it seems as though i dont have enough information to solve this..? please help me!!

A ball is thrown with a speed of 19 m/s and at an angle of 43degrees. How high does it go above the cliff to the nearest tenthof a meter?

the answer is 8.6, but I don't know how to find the formula to findthis nuber, can anyone help me out??

Hello. I received help on this question but (c) was not correct andstill need help. I have included the answers to the (a) and (b) andsome comments on help with (c).

A startled armadillo leaps upward rising 0.542 m in the first 0.200s.
(a) What is its initial speed as it leaves the ground?
3.69 m/s

(b) What is its speed at the height of 0.542 m?
1.73 m/s

(c) How much higher does it go?
? m

Hint: Constant-acceleration equations, for vertical motion. Youknow the final velocity (at maximum height), the time to reachmaximum height, and the (downward) acceleration, and you want theinitial velocity. Next, you know the initial velocity, the time tothe tower top, and the acceleration, and you want the height of thetower.

Thank you.
