Hello Damien!
Neil Armstrong is on the moon (acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s2) and throws a golf ball straight up with an upward with a speed of 10 m/s. How high does the golf ball go?
mv²/2 = m * a * h
h = v² / 2a
h = 10² m² / (s² * 2 * 1.6 m/s²)
h = 31.25 m
The golf ball rises to the height of 31.25 m.
