- Two students are on a balcony 18.6 m above the street. One student throws a ball (ball 1) vertically downward at 13.1 m/s; at the same instant, the other student throws a ball (ball 2) vertically upward at the same speed. The second ball just misses the balcony on the way down. (a) What is the difference in the two ball's time in the air? (b) What is the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground?arrow_forwardA stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff.

Juliet tosses a box of candy straight up with speed 7.50 m/s from a height of 1.53 m above the ground. Ignore any effects due to air resistance. To receive full marks, you must include a diagram showing the physical situation and your choice of coordinate system. (a) Will the box reach Romeo?
