If I use the release velocity, then s= 0- (30)^2 / 2 (9.8), and therefore the answer is 45.9 and at its highest. That was my initial thought, but the next question asks for the horizontal velocity of the ball at its highest point, and that's why I thought we had to use vertical and horizontal...
Hey ya'll ... I just need clarification on this solution. Is it correct in me saying the vertical component is negative as the ball is falling to the ground? Also, I was unsure whether to use the vertical velocity or release velocity in finding the highest point of trajectory
