Problem

A 0.50 kg0.50\,\text{kg} ball is launched straight upward from ground level with an initial speed of 12 m/s12\,\text{m/s}. During the ascent the ball experiences a constant 1.5 N1.5\,\text{N} resistive force due to air. Neglect all other non-gravitational forces. How high above the launch point does the ball rise before momentarily coming to rest? a) 11 m11\,\text{m} b) 3.2 m3.2\,\text{m} c) 5.6 m5.6\,\text{m} d) 7.3 m7.3\,\text{m}
