Question 1 You are standing on top of a 288 m tall building. A drone operated by your friend is headed straight down, at a speed of 35.0 m/s. Just as the drone passes you, you release a tennis ball off the roof. How fast is the ball going when it passes the drone? Question 2 Mary is standing at the top of a hill admiring the view. The hill is at a 3.40° tilt. 24.0 m down the hill an old man lets go of a stroller with a baby inside it. The stroller starts to roll downhill with its frictionless wheels. Mary starts to run after it with her best acceleration of 2.50 m/s2. How far has the stroller rolled before she catches it.
