I already asked a similar question here, but the answers were technical, leading me to no genuine comprehension of what I am doing.(I am not complaining or anything, I really thanked you then.) Suppose I throw a stone in a straight direction with an initial velocity. What is the range of my throwing? I have a starting point, a velocity, and an acceleration, that is the gravity. I suppose my acceleration is negative in that case. Looking for the range, should I be looking at the point when the velocity is zero? That point has a time and place, but I am not sure how to really compute "range". I could really appreciate your explanation on the issue.

Hint:
Try to visualize the motion of the body separately along the 2 axes X and Y. Write the equations of motion with constant acceleration and you should have solvable equations for the height and velocity of the body. Try to think of the range of the body as the x component of the distance it travels when y increases from 0 and goes back to 0 as the height increases and then decreases.
