A stone is thrown vertically down a well at a speed of 2.7 m s¹. It takes the stone 2.02 s to reach the water at the bottom of the well. Calculate i. the speed with which the stone is falling just before it touches the water. ii. the depth of the well (The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m s2. Air resistance is negligible.)

A small rocket fired straight up. When a height of 5.0km and velocity of 200.0m/s, it releases its booster and enters free fall. Calculate the total time of flight between releasing its boosters and falling back nd hitting the ground. A. 20.4s B. 40.8s C. 37.9s D. 58.3 s
A spaceship hovering over the surface of Saturn drops an object from a height of 12 m. How much longer does it take to reach the surface than if dropped from the same height on Earth? Neglect air resistance in both cases. [The acceleration due to gravity on Saturn is 91.6% of that on Earth, gSaturn = (0.916)g.]
A kid in a wagon rolls from rest down a hill and reaches the bottom at 12 m/s. On the next run she gets a push and starts down at 5.0 m/s. At what speed does she now arrive at the bottom? (Hint: If you think it’s 17 m/s, think again!) 7 m/s 12 m/s 13 m/s 17 m/s
14. At a location where g = 9.80 m/s^2, an object is thrown vertically down with an initial speed of 1.00 m/s. After 5.00 s the object will have traveled: a. 245 m b. none of these c. 127.5 m d. 125 m Explanation and solution
Modern oil tankers weigh more than a half-million tons and have lengths of up to one-fourth mile. Such massive ships require a distance of 5.0 km (about 3.0 mi) and a time of 20 min to come to a stop from a top speed of 30 km/h. What is the magnitude of such a ship’s average acceleration in m/s2 in coming to a stop?
A 3.20 kg toy rocket is launched from its platform and reaches a height of 253 m after 3.70 s. If the rocket motor only produced an upward acceleration for the first 1.00 s before running out of fuel, what was that initial upward acceleration? Neglect the effect of air resistance.
On takeoff, a rocket accelerates from rest at a rate of 50.0 m/s2 for exactly 1 minute. The rocket's speed after this minute of steady acceleration will be ____ m/s.
You are on the roof of the lecture hall, 51.8 m above ground. As your physics professor, who is 1.8 m tall, walks towards the hall at a constant speed of 1.2 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your professor's head, where should the professor be when you release the egg? Assume egg is in freefall and air resistance is ignored.
You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 2.67 meters above the ground. Later, an acorn falls from somewhere higher up in the tree. If the acorn takes 0.111 seconds to pass the length of the meter stick, how high ℎ0 above the ground was the acorn before it fell, assuming that the acorn did not run into any branches or leaves on the way down? h0=_______m
