A stone is thrown up with a velocity of 74 m/s from the ground. While coming down, it strikes a glass pan, held at half the height through which it has risen and loses half of its velocity in breaking the glass. Determine the time taken to reach the maximum height and the velocity with which it will strike the ground and total time taken to reach the ground

A car travels on a straight, level road. (a) Starting from rest, the car is going 44 ft/s (30 mi/h) at the end of 5.0 s. What is the cars average acceleration in ft/s2? (b) In 4.0 more seconds, the car is going 88 ft/s (60 mi/h). What is the cars average acceleration for this time period? (c) The car then slows to 66 ft/s (45 mi/h) in 3.0 s. What is the average acceleration for this time period? (d) What is the overall average acceleration for the total time? (Note these convenient British unit conversions: 60 mi/h = 88 ft/s, 45 mi/h = 66 ft/s, and 30 mi/h = 44 ft/s.)

Kathy tests her new sports car by racing with Sian, an experienced racer. Both start from rest, but Kathy leaves the starting line 1.00 s after Stan does. Stan moves with a constant acceleration of 3.50 m/s2, while Kathy maintains an acceleration of 4.90 m/s2. Find (a) the time at which Kathy overtakes Stan, (b) the distance she travels before she catches him, and (c) the speeds of both cars at the instant Kathy overtakes Stan.

A coin is dropped from a hot-air balloon that is 300 m above the ground and rising at 10.0 m/s upward. For the coin, find (a) the maximum height reached, (b) its position and velocity 4.00 s after being released, and (c) the time before it hits the ground.
Amir starts riding his bike up a 195-m-long slope at a speed of 5 m/s, decelerating at -0.14 m/s2 as he goes up. At the same instant, Becky starts down from the top at a speed of -2 m/s, accelerating at -0.48 m/s2 as she goes down. How far has Amir ridden when they pass each other?
