\n" ); document.write( "scenario:suppose a cannon shoots a cannonball into the air so that the initial upward velocity of the cannonball is 320 feet per second.
\n" ); document.write( "formula: H=-1/2*gt^2+vt+h where g is the acceleration due to gravity, and on the earth, equals 32ft/sec^, v is the initial upward velocity of the object and h is the initial height above the ground.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "H(t)=(-1/2)(32)t^2 + 320t + 0
\n" ); document.write( "Let H(t) = 1000 and solve for \"t\".
\n" ); document.write( "-16t^2+320t-1000=0
\n" ); document.write( "-4t^2+80-250=0
\n" ); document.write( "t=[-80+-sqrt(80^2-4*-4*-250)]/-8
\n" ); document.write( "t=3.876... seconds or t=16.1237... seconds
