**Problem 1**

Refer to figure 1. A ball falls from a building that is 10.0 m tall. Calculate how fast the ball travels downward when it is ½ and ¾ the way down. Calculate the maximum velocity the ball can attain. Calculate the height the ball is above the ground where it reaches a velocity of 7.00 m/s.

*Diagram Explanation for Figure 1:*
Figure 1 illustrates a vertical drop scenario where a green ball is released from the top of a red building. The height of the building is marked as 10.0 meters.

**Problem 2**

Refer to figure 2. The 10.0 kg green cart travels down a ramp – from point A to B. Calculate its starting potential energy, kinetic energy at the bottom of the ramp, and its velocity coming off the bottom of the ramp. If the cart coasts from points B to C, did it do any work? How far up the 2nd ramp does the cart go as measured from the ground?

*Diagram Explanation for Figure 2:*
Figure 2 depicts a green cart with a mass of 10.0 kg positioned at the top point A on a ramp. The height of the starting point A is marked as 10.0 meters above the ground. The cart travels from point A down the incline to point B, and then it is supposed to coast to point C, which is located on a second ramp.
