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.)
Recall the famous experiment of Galileo Galilei on top of the leaning tower of Pisa? If he accidentally dropped one stone 1.0 s ahead of the other, with what initial velocity (in m/s) must the second stone would have to be thrown if the two stones would hit the ground at the same time? Note: The tower is 54 m high.
Two stones are thrown vertically upward at the same time, one with an initial velocity of 32 ft/s from a height of 128 ft, the other with an initial velocity of 64 ft/s from a height of 80 ft. If the stones travel along parallel paths, when will the second stone overtake the first?
Which of the following statements are true of the time of flight for a projectile? List all that apply. The time that a projectile is in the air is dependent upon the horizontal component of the initial velocity. The time that a projectile is in the air is dependent upon the vertical component of the initial velocity. For a projectile which lands at the same height that it is projected from, the time to rise to the peak is equal to the time to fall from its peak to the original height. For the same upward launch angles, projectiles will stay in the air longer if the initial velocity is increased. Assume that a kicked ball in football is a projectile. If the ball takes 3 seconds to rise to the peak of its trajectory, then it will take 6 seconds to fall from the peak of its trajectory to the ground.
In performing his favorite workout routine, Boy Maximum throws a ball with an initial velocity of 8.5m/s upward. How long does it take for it to go back to its original position?
Which of the following statements INCORRECTLY describes the horizontal motion of a projectile? •The horizontal motion has non-zero acceleration. •The graph of its horizontal velocity as a funtion of time is a horizontal line. •The horizontal velocity is constant •The graph of its horizontal position as a function of time is a straight line with non-zero slope.
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large.

(d) It is 6 times larger. (e) It is 36 times larger.
