*Modeling Launched Objects: Recall that the formula for a dropped object is h = -16t2 + h0. For an object that is launched or thrown, an extra term v0t must be added to the model to account for the object’s initial vertical (upward) velocity v0 (in feet per second). Recall that h is the height (in feet), t is the time in motion (in seconds), and h0 is the initial height (in feet).
h = -16t2 + h0Object is dropped
h = -16t2 + v0t + h0Object is launched
The value of v0can be ______, ______, or ______, depending on whether the object is launched upward, downward, or parallel to the ground.

Ex. 5: A basketball player passes the ball to a teammate. The ball leaves the player’s hand 5 feet above the ground and has an initial vertical velocity of 55 feet per second. The teammate catches the ball when it returns to a height of 5 feet. How long was the ball in the air?
