Given initial velocity $u = 25.2 \text{ m/s}$ upwards, and acceleration due to gravity $a = -9.8 \text{ m/s}^2$ (assuming upward is positive). At the highest point, the velocity $v = 0 \text{ m/s}$.
A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a speed of 25-2 m/s. The ball will reach the highest point of its journey in
