Problem

A football is kicked vertically upward from the ground and a student looking out of a window sees it moving upward past her at 5.00 m s−15.00\,\mathrm{m\,s^{-1}}. The window is 15.0 m15.0\,\mathrm{m} above the ground. Air resistance may be ignored. Take g=10 m s−2g=10\,\mathrm{m\,s^{-2}}. (a) How high does the football go above the ground? (b) How much time does it take to go from the ground to its highest point?
