Answer:
t = 2.34 s
Explanation:
As we know that
initial velocity is 15 m/s upwards
final velocity is 8 m/s downwards
acceleration is due to gravity which is given as g = 9.8 m/s/s in downwards direction
now we can find the time to change the velocity using equation of kinematics
[tex]v_f - v_i = at[/tex]
here we need to plug in all data
[tex](-8) - 15 = (-9.81) t[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-23}{-9.81}[/tex]
[tex]t = 2.34 s[/tex]
so it will take t = 2.34 s
