The video tutorial explains how to solve a problem involving a ball projected upwards with an initial velocity of 64 feet per second. The goal is to find the maximum height the ball reaches. The solution involves using the vertex formula to calculate the time at which the maximum height occurs and then determining the height itself. The tutorial walks through the calculations step-by-step, ultimately finding that the maximum height is 64 feet.
