SOLUTION: If a stone A is thrown upward from a bridge 10 meters above a river, at an initial velocity of 14.7 meters per second. (a). Write an equation for the height H(t) (in meters) of A

Question 988917: If a stone A is thrown upward from a bridge 10 meters above a river, at an initial velocity of 14.7 meters per second.
(a). Write an equation for the height H(t) (in meters) of A after t seconds (where t≥0), until A splashes into the river. Then determine the length of time t[0] it takes for the stone A to splash into the river.
(b). Sketch the graph, the height H(t) of A above the river for 0<=t<=t[0]
Please explain
Thank you

If you provide the height function, then this is an algebra problem. If you need to derive the height function, then this is a physics problem. Go to a physics homework help site for help with your physics homework.
