An object is thrown vertically and has an upward velocity of 18 m/s when it reaches one fourth of its maximum height above its launch point. What is the initial (launch) speed of the object

v = 25.45 m/s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the initial speed of the object, you take into account the formula for the maximum height reaches by the object. Such a formula is given by:

  (1)

vo: initial speed of the object = 18 m/s

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s²

Furthermore you use the following formula for the final speed of the object:

      (2)

h: height

You know that the speed of the object is 18m/s when it reaches one fourth of the maximum height. You use this information, and you replace the equation (1) in to the equation (2), as follow:

Then, you solve the previous result for vo:

The initial speed of the object was 25.45 m/s

i think it’s a. this is because if they measured the mass of something with a mass of 150g, then their final answer would have to be approximately 150g. though all of their answers are almost 150, rosa and tran have the closest answers (or the exact answer) to the accurate one.

i think they are all correct
