(b) (5 marks) The time of flight will be twice the time it takes to get to its highest point.

in a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9.0 m above him, releases a ball from rest. While still in flight, the acrobat catches the ball just as it reaches him. If he left the trampoline with a speed of 7.6 m/s, how long is he in the air before he catches the ball? (FYI I don't necessarily need the answer but I would really like to know how to solve it, as I don't know how)
A student at the top of a building of height h throws one ball upward with a speed of i and then throws a second ball downward with the same initial speed i. Just before it reaches the ground, is the final speed of the ball thrown upward (a) larger, (b) smaller, or (c) the same in magnitude, compared with the final speed of the ball thrown downward?
How many times higher could an astronaut jump on the Moon than on Earth if his takeoff speed is the same in both locations (gravitational acceleration on the Moon is about 1/6 of g on Earth)?
How fast should you throw a kumquat straight down from 40 m up so that its impact speed would be the same as a mango’s dropped from 60 m?
Professional golfers can drive the ball over 200 m. While air resistance is significant, its effects are nearly canceled because lift is gained from backspin on the ball, and so a reasonable description of the ball’s trajectory is obtained if air resistance is neglected. Suppose a golfer hits a ball 200 m on level ground, giving it an initial velocity at an angle of 45o. The duration of the impact of the club and ball has been measured to be 1.00 ms. a) Calculate the velocity of the ball just after it is struck b) What is the 0.0450 kg ball's change in momentum?
(III) Show that the time required for a projectile to reach its highest point is equal to the time for it to return to its original height if air resistance is neglible.
Anna Shcherbakova is a 2022 Beijing Olympics figure skating gold medalist for ladies’ singles.After warming up she starts her practice by skating towards the middle of the ice rink, 14 metersfrom the entrance. However, this time, one of her friends decided to trick her by pushing hertowards the middle at a velocity of 1.2 m/s (disregard friction between the ice and her skates).Recovering from the shock 2 seconds after, she starts pushing herself forward at an accelerationof 0.5 m/s2. What velocity will she have when she reaches the middle of the rink?
It’s commonly understood that “It’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the sudden stop at the end.” Afew summers ago I was roofing my house – the peak of which is roughly 18 feet above theground. Let’s say I got so caught up in the joy of shingling, I carelessly stepped off the roof,falling to the pavement. Striking the ground, if my head came to rest over a distance of 8 mm(that distance would be the compression of my skull, BTW),a. What (large!) deceleration would I be experiencing (in m/s2)?b. Over what time interval would that deceleration take place?
A poodle is chasing after a frisbee at the park. The frisbeeis maintaining a height of h = 0.95 m as it passes throughthe air. The poodle leaps into the air, from level groundand with initial speed vi at an angle of θ = 52° above thehorizontal. She catches the frisbee in midair 0.40 s afterjumping. (She has not yet reached the peak of her trajec-tory when she catches the frisbee.) How much horizontaldistance ∆x does she cover between jumping and catchingthe frisbee? For the representation, draw the trajectoriesof the dog and the frisbee, making sure to label all relevantinformation. (Note: feel free include the quantity vi whenstarting out your equation work. But you should find thatyou don’t need to know the value of vi in order to solvethis problem, which is why a value hasn’t been providedfor you.)
While sitting on a tree branch 10.0 m above the ground, you drop a chestnut. When the chestnut has fallen 2.5 m, you throw a second chestnut straight down. What initial speed must you give the second chestnut if they are both to reach.
A student who aspires to ace his quiz in Phys134 went to a wishing well. He dropped his first 10-peso coin and made a quick wish. Two seconds after he dropped his first coin, he threw another 10-peso coin vertically downward with a speed of 30m/s. How long will it take the second coin to overtake the first?
A stone dropped from a captive balloon at an elevation of 1000 ft. Two seconds later another stone is projected vertically upward from the ground with the velocity of 248 ft/s. If g is 32 ft/s2, when will the two stones pass each other?
