Hi,
Please can I have some help with part c of this question?
For part a I got, T = u/g
For part b I got, H = u^2/2g
So far I have found 3H = 3u^2/2g and using SUVAT
S = 3u^2/2g
U = u
V = ?
A = g
T = ? X - trying to solve
And then I was using my answer for part a , T and going to add this to the value of T when falling?
Any help please as cant get past this point yet?

Or think about the s-t relationship, how long does it take to fall double, quadruple the distance in terms of T? Why 3H, how far from the peak is that?

How would I do this rejecting the SUVAT approach?
So to sketch this would I let ut = x or t = x? from my equation
If I let ut = x, there is a repeated root of x = 9.8
Would this be my final answer, t = 9.8? I dont quite understand how thatd make sense but by substitution I think mathematically accepted?

a) and b) strongly suggest splitting up the trajectory into time to peak, peak to floor. What are the displacements and times "travelled" during those times. Remember displacement is a quadratic function of time.

Okay so a graph for time to peak and one for time to floor?
S when peaking is 885
Then S from peak to floor = -885?

Right so on the y-axis, I have H which is the displacement and then time on the x-axis
Where does the quadratic, equation involving T come into this and do I use this?

Is this for 3c?

Ive literally just got my axis labelled, trying to find the H and T values to be able to sketch

S = ut + 1/2at^2
S = ut + 1/2at^2
