Julie, who has a mass of 65 kg, is enjoying a day at the local water park with some friends. She waits for her turn at the top of a water slide and then begins sliding down. The topof the water slide is 12 m above the pool and the bottom is 1 m above the pool. How fast is she moving when she reaches the bottom, in m/s? (Round your answer to one decimal place if necessary.)

An object is thrown upwards from the ground level at a speed of 58m/s. It travels upwards to the highest point of its path and then falls back to the ground. What is the objects speed and direction right as it is about to hit the ground at the end of it's fall? * 24 m/s upwards 24 m/s downwards 0 m/s upwards 9.8 m/s upwards 9.8 m/s downwards 58 m/s upwards 58 m/s downwards
A drop tower of an amusement park rises at 5 m/s and is 45 m above theground when one of the riders drops her phone. How long does it take for the phone to fall to the ground?
The other day, while riding my bike, I was forced to stop quickly to avoid a squirrel in the middle of the road 60 feet ahead. I decelerated at a constant rate of 15 ft/sec², skidding all the way. One second into the slide, my trip computer said I was going 27 ft/sec. How far did I skid before stopping? Did I avoid hitting the squirrel? Round to the nearest tenth
A man in a glider leaped off a cliff with an initial velocity of 3.45 m/s. He landed on the ground below, 450 meters away from the cliff. What was the amount of time required for the glider to land on the ground below? How high is the cliff in meters?
A worker at the top of a 390-m-tall television transmitting tower in North Dakota accidentally drops a heavy tool. If air resistance is negligible, how fast (in m/s) is the tool going just before it hits the ground?
A ball is suspended from a light 1.3 m string . The string makes an angle of 24 degrees with the vertical. The ball is then kicked up and to the right such that the string remains taut the entire time the ball swings upwards. This kick gives the ball an initial velocity of 1.1m/s. What will be the speed, in meters per second, of the ball when it reaches its lowest point (θ = 0)? What will be the maximum angle, in degrees, the string will make with the vertical?
A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up with an initial speed of 6 m/s from an initial height of 3.4 m. How much time elapses until the bowling pin returns to the same initial height?
The Hulk, on the 75th story of Stark Tower (225 m off the ground), sees Tony drop his penny. He catches the penny and throws it back to Tony. What is the minimum speed necessary for Hulk's throw in order for the penny to reach Tony? (Note: nobody bothers trying to get Mjolnir back to Thor. He's on his own.)
