A tennis ball is thrown straight up with an initial speed of \(22.5\,\text{m/s}\). It is caught at the same distance above ground.(a) How high does the ball rise? , (b) How long does it take for the ball to reach its highest point? , (c) How long does the ball remain in the air? , (d) How fast (speed) was it going just before it is caught? , (e) What is the velocity and acceleration of the ball at the highest point? :

\(25.8\,\text{m}\) \(2.30\,\text{s}\) \(4.59\,\text{s}\) \(22.5\,\text{m/s}\) \(0\,\text{m/s};\,-9.8\,\text{m/s}^2\)
