A catapult throws watermelons at a target at a speed of 56ft/s. The melon's height is described by the function h=-16t^2 + 56t, where h is the height of the melon and t is the time spent in the air.
a. Assuming the catapult throws melons from ground level and the target is on the same level, how long is the melon in the air before it hits the target?
b. After how many seconds is the melon at its highest point?
c. What is the highest point above ground that the melon will reach?
