An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 51.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.02 m/s. (a) How long after release of the first stone do the two stones hit the water? S (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have if the two stones are to hit the water simultaneously? magnitude m/s direction downward (c) What is the speed of each stone at the instant the two stones hit the water? first stone m/s second stone m/s

One ball is dropped at rest from a height of h = 65 m. At the same time, another ball is thrown upward from the ground with initial velocity v2 = 31 m/s. It takes Δt time for them to meet on the way. Express the displacement of the ball falling down, Δy1, when the two balls meet in terms of Δt and a. Express the displacement of the ball going upward, Δy2, when the two balls meet in terms of v2, a, and Δt. Calculate the numerical value of Δy2, in meters, which represents the height at which the two balls meet.
An inflatable raft (unoccupied) floats down a river at an approximately constant speed of 5.2 m/s. A child on a bridge, 82 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? m
In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the slippery counter for a refill. The bartender is momentarily distracted and does not see the mug, which slides off of the counter and strikes the floor 2.11 m from the base of the counter. If the height of the counter is 1.62 m high, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the mug as it left the counter? Your Answer: Answer

Initially at rest, John catches a football at the 20 yard line, and immediately begins running forward with an acceleration of 2.3 m/s/s. At the instant John caught the ball, Bill (a player on the other team) happens to be 18.9 m away and he is running directly toward John at a constant 5.7 m/s. If the players run directly toward each other, then how far from the 20 yard line will Bill tackle John?
A juggler throws balls straight up in the air. After the balls leave his hand and while it is in the air, explain WHY each of the following four statement is FALSE. Write the right answer. (a) The velocity of the ball is always in the same direction as it's acceleration. (b) The velocity of the ball is never in the same direction as it's acceleration. (c) The acceleration of the ball is zero. (d) The velocity of the pin is the same direction as it's acceleration on the way up.
A distance of 60 meters separates two jetskis at Virginia Beach. Starting at rest, the jetskis accelerate at a constant rate of 0.2 m/s2 towards each other.Starting at a midpoint between the two jetskis, a porpoise is seen swimming from one jetski to the other at a constant speed of 16 m/s. The porpoise continues swimming back and forth between the jetskis until they crash together.a) What is the total distance the porpoise travelled? b) what is the speed of the jetskis when they crash together?
Two objects, A and B, are thrown up at the same moment of time from the same level (from the ground). Object A has initial velocity 10.8 m/s; object B has initial velocity 17.4 m/s. How high above the ground is object B at the moment when object A hits the ground? Need help with this question, thank you!
