A ball slides of a table with an initial horizontal velocity of
1.58 m/s. It strikes the floor after 0.26 s. What is the
height of the table? Express the answer in meters.
You throw an object directly up into the air and then catch it when it comes back down. It hits your hand at a speed of 7 m/s on the way down. What was the initial velocity of the ball? Use a kinematic approach.
While entering a freeway, a car accelerates from rest at a rate of 2.81 m/s² for 13.3s. To help with this question, draw a sketch
