The question as text
5. A small ball is projected vertically upwards with speed 29.4 m s–1 from a point A which is 19.6 m above horizontal ground. The ball is modelled as a particle moving freely under gravity until it hits the ground. It is assumed that the ball does not rebound.

Notes for question 5
M1 Complete method to find distance UP
N.B. They may find time UP (1.5s ) AND use it to find distance UP
5(a)
OR: (Distance from A to top – Distance from ‘14.7’ to top)
= (44.1 – 33.075)
A1 Correct equation(s) used

N.B. If they add to or subtract from 0.606, it’s M0 for an incorrect
method.
B1 V shape with v coord of end pt > 29.4 and each half roughly equally
