Return Throw
Find the speed required to throw a ball straight up and have it return 6 seconds later. Neglect air resistance?

got a exam in a hour on this stuff just if you could please help

Consider the first three seconds.
v=u+at
Substitute v=0, a=-9•8, t=3.
0 = u - 9•8*3
u = 29•4

The next three seconds will be the same but in reverse.

So the answer is 29•4 metres per second.

I hope this helps.

P.S. For a speedier response, try asking questions like this in the maths/science section.
