You can put this solution on YOUR website! A stone was thrown straight up from the ground. What was its initial velocity in feet per second if it hit the ground after 15 seconds?
===============
The ascent time = descent time = 7.5 seconds
The launch speed = impact speed --> it falls for 7.5 seconds
=========
v = at = 32*7.5 = 240 ft/sec
