1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
The nozzle of a fire hose discharges water at a speed of 10 m/s. The nozzle is aimed straight up. How long does it take for a water drop to reach its maximum height?
Start with translating the question:
vi= 10 m/s
vf= 0 m/s
t=? s
a= -9.8 m/s^2
delta−x= ?

3. The attempt at a solution
OK, so I’m assuming that solving this takes 2 steps. One entails finding the maximum height, then using a kinematic formula to find time. Is that logic sound?
