Best Answer

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 meters per second2. That means that any object with no forces acting on it other than gravity, gains speed of 9.8 meters per second downward every second.

Starting with speed of 50 m/s upward, the upward speed decreases by 9.8 m/s each second.

The upward speed is zero after (50/9.8) = 5.1 seconds (rounded)

That's the peak height that the arrow reaches. After that, it starts to fall.
