Two students carry out an experiment to determine the height of a cliff. One student throws a stone horizontally from the cliff top as shown in Figure 1. The other student has a stop watch and records the time of flight of the stone. The stone takes 5.0 s to reach the sea. Ignore air resistance and calculate: e a) the height, h, of the cliff above sea level. b) the vertical velocity of the stone immediately prior to impact with the sea. c) the horizontal velocity of the stone given that it enters the sea 90 m from the base of the cliff. d) the resultant velocity just at impact of the stone with the sea. e) the angle at which the stone enters the sea. he sea e 90 me Figure 1e

A swimmer swims across a river at a velocity of 0.8 ms-1 in a direction perpendicular to the river banks. The water flows down the river at 0.6 ms-1. Find the resultant velocity of the swimmer and the direction.
Coulomb’s law tells us that the electrostatic force between two charged objects can be calculated by: ?= ??1?2/?^2Where k is a constant with a value of 8.99x109 Nm2/C2; ?1 and ?2 are the charges of the two particles (1.602x10-19 C), and r is the distance between the two particles. The force is attractive if the charges of the two particles is opposite (one’s positive and one’s negative) and repulsive if the charges have the same charge (both positive or both negative). Calculate the electrostatic force on proton #1 from the other two protons.Will the gravitational force between the protons be attractive or repulsive? What about the electrostatic force? Which has the larger magnitude, the electrostatic force or the gravitational force? Can the electrostatic and gravitational forces alone create a stable Lithium nucleus?
