Assuming the simple model where the object is projected with an initial velocity of u metres/second at an angle of x to the horizontal, and that the only force acting on it after that is gravitational acceleration, g = 9.81 metres/second^2, then h = [u*sin(x)]^2/(2*g) metres.
If the launch is vertical then x = pi/2 radians and h = u^2/(2*g) metres.

∙ 9y agoA projectile reaches its maximum height when the vertical velocity , Vy , is zero. Basic kinematics
gives :
ymax = ( Vy0 )^2 / ( 2 ) ( g )
where Vy0 is the initial vertical velocity and g is the gravitational acceleration.

The angle of projection of a projectile for which the horizontal range and maximum height are equal?
45 degrees.
What is the magnitude of the velocity of a vertical projectile at its maximum height is equal to?
The horizontal component of a projectile's velocity doesn't change, until the projectile hits somethingor falls to the ground.The vertical component of a projectile's velocity becomes [9.8 meters per second downward] greatereach second. At the maximum height of its trajectory, the projectile's velocity is zero. That's the pointwhere the velocity transitions from upward to downward.
What is the value of the vertical speed at the highest point of the projectile's trajectory?
The value of the vertical speed at the highest point of the projectile's trajectory is the lowest speed at the maximum height reached.
A projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to 14.5 times its maximum height What is the angle of projection?
15.42 degrees
How do you find maximum height of a vertically launched projectile when only time aloft is known?
You can't unless you know gravity and air pressure as well.
In the oblique projection a projectile reaches the maximum height in 8 seconds it is time of flight is?
If a projectile takes 8 seconds to reach its maximum height, it will take another 8 seconds to return to its original elevation. Presuming it is lauched from flat ground and returns to the ground, its total time in flight would be 16 seconds. If it is launched from a hill, or at a hill, more information would be needed.
What is the max a height of a projectile if weight is added?
The max height depends only on the angle and speed at release. It doesn't depend on the projectile's weight.
What is the maximum legal height for overtheroad trucking of equipment?
Without special road permits, 13'6" is maximum.
What is the maximum height from the ground a deck can be without requiring steps?
30"
Which is the total velocity of a projectile at maximum height?
It depends. If the projectile goes straight up and straight down, its velocity will be zero at the top. If the projectile is a baseball about halfway between the pitcher and the bat, its velocity might be 150 km/h.
Can you find the circumference of a cylinder without knowing the height?
C = 2pi * r
How do you solve length given width and height?
You cannot without knowing what the shape is.
