At t = 0 a ball is thrown straight upward from ground level at speed v0. At the same instant, a distance D above, a ball is thrown straight downward, also at speed v0.Where do the b***s collide (in terms of only D, v0, and g)?

Hello guest!

 

At t = 0 a ball is thrown straight upward from ground level at speed v0. At the same instant, a distance D above, a ball is thrown straight downward, also at speed v0.Where do the b***s collide (in terms of only D, v0, and g)?

 

H = D - v0t - (g/2)t2

 

H =  vot - (g/2)t2

 

D - v0t - (g/2)t2 = vot - (g/2)t2 

 

2v0t = D

 

t = D / 2vo

 

The b***s meet after the time t = D / 2v0 . *

 

H = vot - (g/2)t2  = D/2 - (g/2) * D2 / 4v02

 

H = D/2 - gD2  / 8v02

 

The b***s meet at height H = D/2 - gD2  / 8v02 .*

 

Greeting asinus :- )   laugh !

 

* b***s means Bälle.

Hello guest!

Tonight came a new realization:
The b***s meet twice!

 

H = D - v0t - (g/2)t2

 

(g/2)t² + v0t + H - D = 0

  a          b         c

 

\(t = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\)

 

\(t = {-v \pm \sqrt{v^2-2g(H-D)} \over g}\)

 

H =  vot - (g/2)t2

 

(g/2)t² - vt + H = 0

   a        b     c

 

\(t = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\)

 

\(t = {v \pm \sqrt{v^2-2gH} \over g}\)

 

\({\color{blue} {-v \pm \sqrt{v^2-2g(H-D)} \over g}}\)= \({\color{blue}\frac { v \pm \sqrt{v^2-2gH}}{ g}}\) 

 

2v\({\color{blue}\pm \sqrt{v^2-2gH}}\) = \({\color{blue}\pm\sqrt{v^2-2gH+2gD}}\)

 

H must be calculated from this.
Maybe someone can help me.
For given sizes, the thing would be simple.
