Question
A stone is thrown with an initial speed of 15m/s at an angle of 53° above the horizontal from the top of a 35m building. If g=9.8m/s^2 and air resistance is negligable, then what is the speed of the rock as it hits the ground?

- The top of a ski hill sits at an altitude of 2000 m. If you were to "Frenchfry" (go straight down without stopping or turning) down the hill, how fast would he be moving when he reaches an altitude of 600m. Assume the skis are frictionless.arrow_forwardGrug is a creature formed from the top of a Burrawang tree, standing ~1.25m tall. One day, Grug climbs a playground slide of 2.6 m height, and slides down its largely frictionless surface. The bottom of the slide is 69 cm above the ground. With what speed does Grug leave the slide? (Units: m/s)arrow_forwardA 297-gram ball is thrown at a speed of 43.9 m/s from the top of a 41.1-m high cliff.
