At a particular instant, a hot air balloon is 100 m in the air and descending at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. At this exact instant, a girl throws a ball horizontally, relative to herself, with an initial speed of 35 m/s. When she lands, where will she find the ball? Ignore air resistance.
A sandbag is dropped from a balloon which is ascending vertically at a constant speed of 6 m/s. If the bag is released with the same upward velocity of 6 m/s when t = 0 s and hits the ground when t = 8 s, determine the speed of the bag as it hits the ground and the altitude of the balloon at this instant.

A hot-air balloon of diameter 12 m rises vertically at a constant speed of 15 m/s . A passenger accidentally drops his camera from the railing of the basket when it is 15 m above the ground. If the balloon continues to rise at the same speed, how high is the railing when the camera hits the ground?
A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level (y = 0.00 m), at time t = 0.00 s. The rocket engine provides constant upward acceleration during the burn phase. At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 69 m and acquired a velocity of 40 m/s. The rocket continues to rise in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground with negligible air resistance. The speed of the rocket upon impact on the ground is closest to 45 m/s 61 m/s 66 m/s 50 m/s 54 m/s
se the position equation s = −16t2 + v0t + s0 where s represents the height of an object (in feet), v0 represents the initial velocity of the object (in feet per second), s0 represents the initial height of the object (in feet), and t represents the time (in seconds). A projectile is fired straight upward from ground level (s0 = 0) with an initial velocity of 128 feet per second. (b) When will the height be less than 128 feet? (Only consider the time from launch to landing. Enter your answer using interval notation.)
