So for projectile motion questions, we use the Cartesian equations.
Given that s(t) is the height of the projectile at an arbitrary time, t, we want the height of the projectile to equal to zero in order to find its flight time.
Let s(t) = 0.
[tex]gt^{2} + V_0 t + s_0 = 0[/tex]
Now, the initial velocity of the projectile is given to be 19.6, and the initial height is 24.5.
Substitute those in to find:
[tex]-4.9t^{2} + 19.6t + 24.5 = 0[/tex]
