An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 51.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.02 m/s. (a) How long after release of the first stone do the two stones hit the water? S (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have if the two stones are to hit the water simultaneously? magnitude m/s direction downward (c) What is the speed of each stone at the instant the two stones hit the water? first stone m/s second stone m/s

A girl is standing at the edge of a cliff 100. m above the ground. She reaches out over the edge of the cliff and throws a rock straight upward with a speed 8.00 m/s. a) How long does it take the rock to hit the ground? b) What is the speed of the rock the instant before it hits the ground?
The basketball bounces straight back up off the ground and reaches a maximum height of 4.00m. a)With what speed did the ball leave the ground? (It is perfectly natural for this to be less than the speed it had before it hit the ground.) The basketball hoop is 3.05 m above the ground. The ball will pass the position of the hoop twice –once on the way up and a second time on the way down. b)Determine the ball's velocity (magnitude and direction) as it reaches the height of the hoop on its way down.
A jeepney and a train are moving together along parallel paths at 30.0 m/s, with the jeepney adjacent to the rear of the train. The jeepney driver sees the traffic light turn red, so he accelerates at -2.50 m/s2, and then let his jeepney come to rest. The jeepney is at rest for 50.0 s, and then accelerates at 2.50 m/s2 to go back to a speed of 30.0 m/s. Assuming that the speed of the train remained constant at 30.0 m/s, how far is the jeepney from the rear of the train when the jeepney reaches a speed of 30.0 m/s?
Two friends are tossing balls from the main floor of the auditorium to the balcony. One person stands exactly 4.0 m above the other person, and both release and catch the balls at the same height above their feet. The balls are always caught on their way down. The boy on the main floor releases his ball with an initial velocity of 25 m/s [up]. With what velocity should the girl on the balcony throw her ball at the same moment, so that both balls will be caught by the other person at exactly the same time

You throw a ball straight up into the air at 18 m/s from a height of 32 m above the ground. T/I (a) Calculate the time the ball takes to hit the ground. (b) Calculate the velocity of the ball when it hits the ground. (c) Calculate the maximum height of the ball. (d) Explain why you cannot use half the time for (a) to answer (c).
A hot-air balloon has just lifted off and is rising at the constant rate of2.0m/s. Suddenly one of the passengers realizes she has left her cameraon the ground. A friend picks it up and tosses it straight upward with aninitial speed of 12m/s. If the passenger is 2.5m above her friend when thecamera is tossed, how high is she when the camera reaches her?
A rubber ball is shot straight up from the ground at 5.40 m/s. A second rubber ball is simultaneously dropped from rest 1.91 m above the ground. How high above the ground are the balls when they collide?
You have two stones in your hands, and you are standing on a bridge. You throw the first stone with a velocity of 8.00 m/s upward. One second later, you let drop the second stone. Both stones hit the water below the bridge at the same time. a)For how much time is the first stone in free fall? b)What is the distance from your hand to the water? c) What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the first stone when it hits the water?
