1. •• A 0.26-kg rock is thrown vertically upward from the top of a cliff that is 32 m high. When it hits the ground at the base of the cliff, the rock has a speed of 29 m/s. Assuming that air resistance can be ignored, find (a) the initial speed of the rock and (b) the greatest height of the rock as measured from the base of the cliff. Draw and Explain.

In the traditional Hansel and Gretel fable, the children drop crumbs of bread on the ground to mark their path through the woods. Unfortunately, the crumbs are eaten by birds, and the children cannot find their way home. In this modern-day problem, the children use a device that releases a drop of food dye once per minute. As long as it does not rain, they can find their way home. As an extra bonus, they make a motion diagram as shown in Figure P2.6. a. Describe the motion of the children in words. b. Using the coordinate system in Figure P2.6, make a position-versus-time graph. Note any ambiguities you encounter. c. Is your position-versus-time graph consistent with your description in part (a)? Explain.
