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
OK, this is the last time for one of these crazy adventures. THIS time, though, there is a window in the floor, and you can see that you re in a rocket which has just taken off from the surface of an alien planet. By taking careful measurements out that window you determine that the rocket is accelerating upward at 8.29 m/s^2. When you drop a ball from a height of 2.08 m, it hits the floor 0.207 s later. What is the value of g for the alien world below you? 97.9 m/s^2 168.7 m/s^2 88.8 m/s^2 106.9 m/s^2
Figure out the acceleration due to gravity ( g ) on various hypothetical alien planets. On planet #2, you launch a projectile straight up from the ground at a speed of 27.9 m/s. The projectile reaches a maximum height of 75.5 m before falling back to the ground. What is the value of g for planet #2?
You toss an apple horizontally at 8.4 m/sm/s from a height of 2.0 mm. Simultaneously, you drop a peach from the same height. How long does apple take to reach the ground? How long does peach take to reach the ground?
OK, yet another strange awakening in a room with no windows. This time you drop a ball from a height of 1.79 m and it hits the floor 0.423 s after you drop it. This time you suspect you are on a rocket that has just left the surface of the Earth, and is still not too far above the ground. What do you deduce the rocket s acceleration to be?
An inflatable raft (unoccupied) floats down a river at an approximately constant speed of 3.9 m/s. A child on a bridge, 66 m above the river, sees the raft in the river below and attempts to drop a small stone onto the raft. The child releases the stone from rest. In order for the stone to hit the raft, what must be the horizontal distance between the raft and the bridge when the child releases the stone?
A jet plane comes in for a landing with a speed of 120 m/s. The length of the runway is 500 m. From the instant the plane touches the runway, what is the magnitude of the acceleration needed to stop within the runway? Write your answer in terms of m/s2.

The NEXT morning, you wake up in a strange room yet again, and this time you drop a ball from a height of 2.15 m above the floor. The ball hits the floor 0.265 s after your drop it. You guess that you must have been taken to an alien planet with gravity different from Earth s. What is this planet s g (that is, the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on this planet)? 61.2 m/s^2 30.6 m/s^2 45.9 m/s^2 97.9 m/s^2
