@BeefySenpie Oh...yes, I was looking for the max height. It must be a maximum though; it’s a large number?

@ShaythePanTransMan The math is correct. When you say you're looking for the t value at which v'(t) = 0, what that really means is that you're looking for the moment in time at which the projectile is neither rising nor falling. In practical terms, this is the top of the projectile's arch. As @BeefySenpie pointed out, it's technically necessary to determine the signs of the velocities directly before and after this leveling off [i]in the general case[/i], as a projectile could theoretically do the opposite if an upward force were being applied, but one could reasonably argue that this isn't necessary in the case of this projectile because the only forces being applied are air resistance, gravity, and the force of the throw.

@BlueVeins Oh, hm...all right, thank you! I’ll review my notes for that day so I can remember how to do that.
I really suck at this class.... I’m struggling just to pass.
