Answer:
V = 0.9 m/s
Explanation:
The parameters given are:
Initial velocity U = 6.4 m/s
Time t = 0.64s
Height h = 2.05 m
To find the final velocity, let us use third equation of motion
V^2 = U^2 – 2gH
Since the ball is going upward, g will be negative
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
V^2 = 6.4^2 – 2 × 9.8 × 2.05
V^2 = 40.96 – 40.18
V^2 = 0.78
V = sqrt( 0.78)
V = 0.883 m/ s
V = 0.9 m/ s approximately
