Egg is thrown vertically upward


An egg is thrown nearly vertically upward from a point near the cornice of a tall building. It just misses the cornice on the way down and passes a point 50.0 m below its starting point 5.00 s after it leaves the thrower's hand.

Air resistance may be ignored.

(a) What is the initial speed of the egg?

(b) How high does it rise above its starting point?

(c) What is the magnitude of its velocity at the highest point?

(d) What are the magnitude and direction of its acceleration at the highest point?

(e) Sketch a,-t, v,-t, and y-t graphs for the motion of the egg.
