An object falls from rest from the top of a cliff. Another object is thrown downward from the same height 1.80s later with an initial speed of 35.0 m/s. (a) If both objects hit the ground simultaneously, how high is the cliff? (Ans.: 36 m) (b) If, while the objects are airborne, an earthquake opens a hole 20 m deep in the ground, with what speed will the second object hit the bottom? (Ans.: 48.2 m/s)

A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 35.0-m-high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 2.82 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock? Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.
A red train traveling at 72 km/h and a green train traveling at 144 km/h are headed toward each other on a straight, level track. When they are 950 m apart, each engineer sees the other's train and applies the breaks. The brakes slow each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s^2. Is there a collision? If so, what is the speed of the red train and the speed of the green train? If not, what is the separation between the trains when they stop?
A projectile is launched from ground level with the initial velocity of 50.0 m/s. The time of the flight is measured to be 6.00 s. How far from the launch point does the projectile land? Neglect the air resistance and use g = 10.0 m/s2.
If a driver is initially going 35.5m/s to the left and then slams on the brakes to accelerate at a magnitude of 3.8m/s/s until she comes to a complete stop. If she started applying her brakes at a position of 102m from zero, then where is her final position from zero?
Att = 0 , a stone is dropped from the top of a cliff above a lake. Another stone is thrown downward 1.6 s later from the same point with an initial speed of 32 m/s . Both stones hit the water at the same instant. Find the height of the cliff. a--
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
