Problem

A stone is projected vertically upward. While rising, its speed is 14 m s−114\,\text{m s}^{-1} at a height of 20 m20\,\text{m} above the point of projection. Neglecting air resistance and taking g=9.8 m s−2g = 9.8\,\text{m s}^{-2}, calculate the initial speed of projection. (a) 20.0 m s−120.0\,\text{m s}^{-1} (b) 14.0 m s−114.0\,\text{m s}^{-1} (c) 24.3 m s−124.3\,\text{m s}^{-1} (d) 34.3 m s−134.3\,\text{m s}^{-1}
