A cricket ball is thrown straight up with a speed of

24.5\,\text{m/s}

. Assuming

g = 9.8\,\text{m/s}^2

downward and the ball returns to the thrower’s hand at the same level from which it was thrown, determine the total time of flight. a)

2.5\,\text{s}

4.9\,\text{s}

5.0\,\text{s}

3.0\,\text{s}
