A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 22.4 m/s from the edge of the roof of a 39.5 m tall building. The rock doesn't hit the building on its way back down and lands on the street below. Ignore air resistance. (a) What is the speed (in m/s) of the rock just before it hits the street? (b) How much time (in sec) elapses from when the rock is thrown until it hits the street?

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 they cause 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.) (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have had, given that they hit the water simultaneously? (c) What was the velocity of each stone at the instant it hit the water?
A) Compute the position of the sandbag at a time 1.25 s after its release. Express your answer in meters. B) Compute the magnitude of the velocity of the sandbag at a time 1.25 s after its release. Express your answer in meters per second.
Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a person accidentally steps barefoot on a pebble. About how much time does it take the nerve impulse to travel from the foot to the brain (in s)? Assume the person is 1.60 m tall and the nerve impulse travels at uniform speed.
A ball is projected at 72h-1 speed from the top of building. The building is 204 metres tall. The distance travelled in metres before it reaches the ground is as follows, s = u0t+1/2gt^2 where: u0= initial velocity (m. s-1) g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m.s-2) t = time (s) Find the time for th ball to drop to a quarter (measured from the grour of the height of the building.
An object is thrown straight up from the top of a building that is 31.2 m high. The object is thrown with a velocity of 16.4 m/s. At the same time the object is thrown upwards, a person runs along the ground with a constant speed of 3.4 m/s. When the object hits the ground, how far has the person gone in meters?
Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a woman accidentally steps barefoot on a thumbtack. About how much time does it take the nerve impulse to travel from the foot to the brain (in s)? Assume the woman is 1.80 m tall and the nerve impulse travels at uniform speed.
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. Which of these two valid methods is the easiest to find how long her feet are in the air? Group of answer choices Break the problem in two parts. For part 1, find the time to reach her highest point by using v0 = 4 m/s, a = -9.8 m/s2, and vf = 0 m/s. For part 2, you can use the highest point above the board found in the previous problem and add it to her height above the pool. Then, using v0 = 0 m/s and a = -9.8 m/s2, you can find the time to reach the ground. Since you only care about the end points in this case, you can use v0 = 4 m/s, a = -9.8 m/s2, and Δy = -1.1 m to find the time to reach the ground.
An astronaut on the Moon (g=1.62 m/s2) throws a rock from the ground level with a speed of 32.1 km/h directly upwards. Determine the time after which the rock reaches the height equal to three quarters of its maximum height on the way down.Provide your answer with the precision of two places after the decimal.
A cannonball is fired at 171 (m/s), straight up in the air, by accident. Quickly realizing the error, the commanding officer orders the gunners to fire another cannonball straight up to hit the one coming down. In order to be safe, the two cannon balls must explode at a given hight of 636 (m). What is the maximum time (in seconds) the second cannonball can be fired after the first, such that the two cannaballs collide, exploding safely above the regiment? (s) How fast (velocity) will the first cannon ball be traveling just before the collision? (m/s) How fast (velocity) will the second cannon ball be traveling just before the collision? (m/s)

(Enter a number.) m (b) How long (in s) would it take to reach the ground if it is thrown straight down with the same speed? (Enter a number.) s †
