A baseball player throws a baseball straight up into the air, the ball leaving his hand at time t = 0.0 s. The ball reaches maximum height at t = 1.4 s. When will the baseball return to the height from which it was released?
The ball should take twice as long to return to its original position as it took to reach its maximum height, so it should return to its original position at [tex]t=2.8\,\rm s[/tex].
