On another planet, a marble is released from rest at the top of a high cliff. It falls 14 m in the first 1.0 s of its motion. What is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration due to the strange gravity? How far from the top of the cliff is the marble after 2.5 s? How long will it take for the marble to reach 1.0 x 10³ m below the top of the cliff? If an astronaut measures the velocity of the marble as it hits the ground to be 750 m/s, how high is the cliff? i. ii. iii. iv.

OK, yet another strange awakening in a room with no windows. This time you drop a ball from a height of 1.67 m and it hits the floor 0.292 s after you drop it.
