AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the total distance traveled by a body thrown vertically upward to a height \( h \) and then returning to its initial position, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Motion**: The body is thrown vertically upward, reaches a maximum height \( h \), and then falls back to the initial position. 2. **Calculate the Distance Upwards**: When the body is thrown upwards, it travels a distance equal to the height \( h \) until it reaches the maximum point. ...
