- Repeat the preceding problem for the case when the initial speed of the second object is nonzero.arrow_forwardCheck Your Understanding You probably recall that, neglecting air resistance, if you throw a projectile straight up, the time ii takes to reach its maximum height equals the time it takes to fall from the maximum height back to the starting height. Suppose you cannot neglect air resistance, as in Example 8.8. Is the time the projectile takes to go up (a) greater than, (b) less than, or (c) equal to the time It takes to come back down? Explain.arrow_forwardNeglecting air resistance, how much would I have to raise the vertical height if I wanted to double the impact speed of a falling object?arrow_forward
