1. **Problem statement:**
Repeat part a for an object thrown upwards on Mars where gravity $g = 3.7 \text{ m/s}^2$.
2. **Recall the formula for maximum height:**
$$h = \frac{v_0^2}{2g}$$
where $v_0$ is the initial velocity and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.
3. **Important rules:**
- Gravity on Mars is less than on Earth, so the object will reach a higher maximum height for the same initial velocity.
- The formula assumes upward motion against constant gravity until velocity becomes zero.
4. **Intermediate work:**
Assuming the initial velocity $v_0$ is the same as in part a (not given here, so let's denote it as $v_0$), substitute $g = 3.7$:
$$h = \frac{v_0^2}{2 \times 3.7} = \frac{v_0^2}{7.4}$$
5. **Explanation:**
The maximum height is inversely proportional to gravity. Since Mars has lower gravity, the object reaches a higher height compared to Earth.
6. **Final answer:**
$$\boxed{h = \frac{v_0^2}{7.4}}$$
This is the maximum height reached by the object thrown upwards on Mars with initial velocity $v_0$.
