Homework Statement
I am not going to use the exact same problem, as that would be cheating as this is for school, but Instead i will use an example problem:
A can of pop is tossed directly upwards with an initial velocity of 4 m/s. How high will it go?
Homework Equations
I know that gravity is -9.8m/s/s so that is my acceleration
I know the initial velocity is 4m/s
and I know the final velocity is 0m/s
The Attempt at a Solution
What I instinctively do is simply, the initial velocity divided by the maceration which gets me 0.41 but I don't know if that is correct or if that would give me the time it took or the distance it traveled.
As this is not an actual problem from my homework, only an example problem to help me understand a concept, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh
