A mountain climber stands at the top of a 35.0 m cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. She throws two stones vertically downward 1.00 s apart and observes that theycause a single splash. The first stone had an initial velocity of -1.20 m/s.(a) How long after release of the first stone did the two stones hit the water? (Round your answer to at least two decimal places.)7.14Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. s(b) What initial velocity must the second stone have had, given that they hit the water simultaneously?-33.7Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. m/s(c) What was the velocity of each stone at the instant it hit the water?first stone-26.16m/s-26.16second stoneYour response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. m/s

Height of cliff (h) = 35 m Velocity of first stone (u) = -1.20 m/s

Jack wants to test how fast can superman save him if he jumps of a cliff 180m high. He recorded that after 5 seconds, superman arrives at the cliff and dives to save Jack. Superman leaves the cliff with an initial velocity to give him a push to catch Jack, and later on act on a free fall as Jack is. Compute the initial velocity of superman so he can catch Jack before they hit the ground.
