Y=Yo+VoT-1/2GT^2 5200 2nd St NW, Washington, DC 20011
0=Ymax+0-1/2GT^2
1/2GT^2=Ymax
Ttotal=2Ymax/G
Ttotal=√(2ymax ÷ 9.81)
This got us our hang time by
dividing our max height by
gravity. Our constant was the
standing tape, our independent
was how high we jumped, and
our dependent was the
distance. Figure 1: Figure 2: Figure 3: Lorelei put the graph here

that by setting two different heights, standing and
heights, one standing and jumping, and using the
one jumping, we could find Data and Analysis: equation, t=√(2ymax ÷
