Question: In Problem 16 let t a be the time it takes the cannonball to attain its maximum height and let t d be the time

In Problem 16 let ta be the time it takes the cannonball to attain its maximum height and let td be the time it takes the cannonball to fall from the maximum height to the ground. Compare the value of ta with the value of td and compare the magnitude of the impact velocity vi with the initial velocity v0. See Problem 50 in Exercises 3.1. A root-­finding application of a CAS might be useful here.
