a stone is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity of 20 m per second determine the total time of flight of stone in air​

Explanation:

The best way to do this is to remember the rule about the halfway mark in a parabolic path. At a trajectory's half way point in its travels, it will be at its max height. To get the total time in the air, we take that time at half way and double it. Here's what we know that we are told:

initial velocity is 20 m/s

Here's what we know that we are NOT told:

a = -9.8 m/s/s and

final velocity is 0 at an object's max height in parabolic motion.

We will use the equation:

where v is final velocity and v0 is initial velocity. Filling in:

0 = 20 + (-9.8)t and

-20 = -9.8t so

t = 2 seconds. The stone reaches its max height 2 seconds after it is thrown; that means that after another 2 seconds it will be on the ground. Total air time is 4 seconds.

a lot of it means it can be "burned" for energy and sold at one price. if it is scarce, the price will go up
