Comparison of two trials for a ball launched from height H.
Comparison of two trials for a ball launched from height H.
A small ball is dropped from rest from a height \(H\) above the ground and takes a time \(T\) to reach the ground. In a second trial, the ball is thrown vertically upward from the same height \(H\) with an initial speed such that the ball reaches a maximum height of \(2H\) above the ground before falling back down. Air resistance is negligible.

What is the total time the ball is in the air during the second trial in terms of \(T\)?
