QUOTE(Kernkraft400 @ Nov 7 2008, 12:40 AM) Yes that could be the only explaination. We tend to forget that, that is the distance travelled downwards whilst the object tend to move upwards at the same time. This concept is heavily used in physics when calculating the time of an object going against the speed of sound where sound is reflected as it comes and goes, this has to be divide by 2. In this case it is times 2. Moreover, 1800 - 180 because it does not go back to the initial point. Tricky question. i dun understand.. here's another ques.. The first term and n th term of an arithmetric progression is -5 and 25 respectively. Given that the sun of the first n terms is 50, find the value of n. how ? i got many more ques abt progression..but now ask 1 first

Sn= n/2 x (a+l) 50 = n/2 x (-5+25) n=5
Voila!
