You throw a ball straight up from a roof of a building. The ball leaves your hand at a point even with the roof railing with an upward speed of 15m/s. The ball is then in free fall. On its way back down, it just misses the railing. After 6.0s from release, the ball then hits the ground. What is the height of the building? 88.7m 99.2m 164.9m O 176.4m

You launch a projectile horizontally from a building 31.0 m above the ground at another building 37.1 m away from the first building. The projectile strikes the second building 3.4 m above the ground. What was the projectile s launch speed? 55.70 m/s 15.64 m/s 14.76 m/s 44.56 m/s
A crow flies carrying a shiny rock. The crow reaches an altitude of 65m and is flying 34.5 m/h. It releases the rock. Find the time it will take the rock to hit the ground below, the horizontal distance the rock will travel before it hits, and the speed of the rock when it hits the ground
A ball is suspended from a light 1.3 m string . The string makes an angle of 24 degrees with the vertical. The ball is then kicked up and to the right such that the string remains taut the entire time the ball swings upwards. This kick gives the ball an initial velocity of 1.1m/s. What will be the speed, in meters per second, of the ball when it reaches its lowest point (θ = 0)? What will be the maximum angle, in degrees, the string will make with the vertical?
An object is thrown straight upward with an initial velocity of 20.0 m/s j. Upon reaching the ground below, its velocity is -30.8 m/s j. From what distance above ground level was the object thrown?
A cannon shell is fired straight up from the ground at an initial speed of 236 m/s. After how much time is the shell at a height of 6.04 x 10² m above the ground and moving downward? 48.1633 X
