Explanation / Answer

initial velocity v = 4.92 m / s Initial height h = 1.8 m Maximum height reached by ball above 1.8 m is H = v ^ 2/ 2g                                                                              = 1.235 m So, total height above the ground H ' = H + h                                                         = 3.035 m Time taken to reach the maximum height above 1.8 m height t = v / g                                                                                               = 0.502 s Let Time taken to reach the ball from maximum height toground be t ' then from the relation S = ut + ( 1/ 2 ) at ^ 2                          H ' = 0 + 0.5 * g * t ' ^ 2 from this wefind t ' value So, total time in the air T = t + t ' substitue values weget answer
