A ball is thrown vertically upward with initial velocity v. Find the maximum height H of the ball as a function of v.

so the H is:

h = - (1/2) gt^2 + vt.

where g = 32 ft/s^2 or 9.8 m/s^2

so the initial velocity can be solve by rearranging the equation

h = - (1/2) gt^2 + vt.

h + (1/2) gt^2 = vt

v = h/t + (1/2) gt
