[#361a] How much room does a juggler need? (part 1)
A juggler throws balls almost vertically upwards, with time t=0.23s between each throw. (Yes, pretty amazing.) The balls are all thrown to the same height, and in repeated succession (e.g.1,2,3,1,2,3 etc.). Let's simplify: neglect air resistance, neglect the time between catching and throwing a ball and assume that balls are thrown and caught at the same height. Calculate the minimum height he must throw the balls if he is to juggle
3 balls?
(Hints: How many throws before the same ball gets thrown again? How does the time for the ball to go up compare with the time to go down?)
