A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.0 m/s, and her takeoff point is 1.1 m above the pool. Find how long her feet are in the air. Group of answer choices 1.03 2 0.28 s 0.22 s 0.44 s
A steel ball is dropped from a building’s roof and passes a window, taking 0.13 s to fall from the top to the bottom of the window, a distance of 1.20 m. It then falls to a sidewalk and bounces back past the window, moving from bottom to top in 0.13 s. Assume that the upward flight is an exact reverse of the fall. The time the ball spends below the bottom of the window is1.61 s. How tall is the building?
A golf ball is dropped from rest from a height of 8.10 m. It hits the pavement, then bounces back up, rising just 5.40 m before falling back down again. A boy then catches the ball when it is 1.30 m above the pavement. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the total amount of time that the ball is in the air, from drop to catch.
Compute your Average velocity in the following two cases: (a) You walk 61.4 m at a speed of 2.47 m/s and then run 61.4 m at a speed of 3.34 m/s along a straight track. (B) You walk for 1 minute at a speed of 2.47 m/s and then run for 1.8 minutes at 3.34 m/s along a straight track
A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 29.0 m/s from the edge of the roof of a 21.0-m-tall building. The rock doesn't hit the building on its way back down and lands in the street below. Ignore air resistance. Q: How much time elapses from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street? PS: Since someone keeps erasing what comes after Q and stating that the question is incomplete, I have attached an image proving the the entire question has been typed.

You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. The rock passes you on its way down, 6.00 ss after it was thrown. What is the speed of the rock just before it reaches the water 27.0 mm below the point where the rock left your hand? Ignore air resistance.
A student launches a small rocket which starts from rest at ground level. At a height h=1.04km, the rocket reaches a speed of vf=391m/s. At that height, the rocket runs out of fuel, so there is no longer any thrust propelling it. After the rocket's engine turns off at a height of h=1.04km, it continues to move upward due to the velocity that it reached. What is the rocket's acceleration, in meters per squared second, during the period from engine shutoff until it returns to the ground? Ignore air resistance.
