isitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 49.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and y cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 1.84 m/s. (a) How long after release of the first stone do the two stones hit the water?

I throw a ball up into the air, and it lands back down in my hand (at the same height it was thrown from) after exactly one second. With what initial velocity did I throw it?
69) A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose boat has sunk. One of the rescuers throws a life preserver straight down to the victim with an initial velocity of 1.40 m/s and observes that it takes 1.8 s to reach the water. (a) List the knowns in this problem. (b) How high above the water was the preserver released? Note that the downdraft of the helicopter reduces the effects of air resistance on the falling life preserver, so that an acceleration equal to that of gravity is reasonable.
1. A ball is thrown into the air with an initial x velocity of 15 m/s and an initial y velocity 10 m/s from an initial height of 20 m. a) What is the maximum height of the ball? How long does it take the ball to reach its maximum height? b) What is the range of the ball?
A cannon on a flat railroad car travels to the east with its barrel tilted 30∘ above horizontal. It fires a cannonball at 50 m/s. At t= 0 s, the car, starting from rest, begins to accelerate to the east at 4.0 m/s2. At what time should the cannon be fired to hit a target on the tracks that is 360 m to the east of the car's initial position? Assume that the cannonball is fired from ground level.

Consider a rock that is thrown off a bridge of height 68 m at an angle speed the rock is thrown is 15 m/s, find the following quantities. Vo Bridge 0 y (a) The time it takes the rock to reach its maximum height. S m (b) The maximum height reached by the rock. (c) The time at which the rock lands. S (d) The place where the rock lands. m m/s = (e) The velocity of the rock (magnitude and direction) just before it lands. magnitude direction O 21° with respect to the horizontal as shown in the figure below.

Two cars are driving, car 1 has initial position -3500m, initial velocity -55m/s and acceleration +1.25m/s2, car 2 has initial position +4100m, initial velocity -35 m/s and acceleration +0.75m/s2; a) How much time until they collide? b) What is the x location where they collide, and the final velocity of each car?
In a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9.0 m above him, releases a ball from rest. While still in flight, the acrobat catches the ball just as it reaches him. If he left the trampoline with a speed of 8.0 m/s, how long is he in the air before he catches the ball?
