Explanation / Answer

answer #2 first and find the time by equation v(final)=v(initial)+a*t--->t=v(initial)/a because there is no velocity at the instant the object peaks. Therefore t=34.3/9.81=3.49 s. So your answer is b)

#1 is a) using y(final)-y(initial)=0.5*[v(initial)+v(final)]*t. You have time and y(initial)=0 so y(final)=0.5*[34.3]*3.49=60.028 m

#3 there is no work. You have to know that a projectile is only experiencing the acceleration of gravity which is 9.81 m/s^2 downward (in this case). Therefore your answer is d)
