Verified Answer :

that depends on it's maximum height
but assuming the max is 160 feet then the answer is 1 second to attain max height since its 160 ft per second

In 5 second it reaches maximum height.


According to the question,

  • u = 160 ft/s
  • g = 32 ft/ s²

We know that,

→ \(s(t) = ut-(\frac{1}{2} )gt^2\)

By substituting the values, we get

→        \(= 160t-16t^2\)

Now,

→    \(\frac{ds}{dt} = 160-32 t\)

\(\frac{ds}{dt} =0\) at maximum height, then

→    \(160-32t=0\)

→              \(32t = 160\)

→                 \(t = \frac{160}{32}\)

→                    \(= 5 \ sec\)

Thus the above response is right.
