Playing jackstone as a kid, you discovered that there is a certain time before the rubber ball falls and you took advantage of this when picking up the stars on the floor. If you threw the ball (GIVEN A)m/s up into the air, how fast will it be moving at a height of (GIVEN B)cm? How much time has elapsed upon reaching this height?

Playing jackstone as a kid, you discovered that there is a certain time before the rubber ball falls and you took advantage of this when picking up the stars on the floor. If you threw the ball 2.54m/s up into the air, how fast will it be moving at a height of 15.05cm? How much time has elapsed upon reaching this height?
A jeep travels a distance d=22.1m in the positive x direction in a time t1=20.2s, at which point the jeep brakes, coming to rest in t2=7.38s. 1. What was the jeep's instantaneous velocity in the horizontal direction, in meters per second, when it began braking? 2. Using the result from question 1, what was the jeep's horizontal component of acceleration, in meters per squared second, during the braking period?
You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 2.672.67 meters above the ground. Later, an acorn falls from somewhere higher up in the tree. If the acorn takes 0.1860.186 seconds to pass the length of the meter stick, how high ℎ0h0 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?
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 0.311 seconds to pass the length of the meter stick, how high (h0) above the ground in meters was the acorn before it fell, assuming that the acorn did not run into any branches or leaves on the way down?
You are on the roof of a Physics Building, 17 m above the ground. Your physics professor, who is 1.95 m tall, is approaching the building at constant speed of 1.43 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on his head, how far should your professor be when you release the egg?
An express train passes through a station that is 220 m long. It enters with an initial speed of 22.5 m/s and decelerates at a rate of 0.14 m/s2 as it goes through. During what time interval, in seconds, is the front of the train within the station? How fast is the train moving, in meters per second, when its front leaves the station? If the train is 130 m long, how long, in seconds, after the front of the train enters the station does the end of the train leave the station? What is the velocity of the end of the train as it leaves in m/s?
The Empire State Building in New York City is 381 meters tall. If a penny were dropped from rest at that height, how many seconds would it take to strike the street below? Air resistance would make a significant difference in the real world case, but ignore air resistance for now.
You are on the roof of a Physics Building, 51 m above the ground. Your physics professor, who is 1.79 m tall, is approaching the building at constant speed of 1.23 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on his head, how far should your professor be when you release the egg? do not round off
You are on the roof of a Physics Building, 35 m above the ground. Your physics professor, who is 1.87 m tall, is approaching the building at constant speed of 1.76 m/s. If you drop an egg on his head, how far should your professor be when you release the egg?
A person standing at the edge of a cliff throws a rock upward from a height of 350ft above ground level with an initial velocity of 65⁢ft/s. What is the velocity of impact when the rock reaches the bottom of the cliff? Round any intermediate calculations, if needed, to no less than six decimal places, and round your final answer to two decimal places. (Hint: Use h(t)=−16t2+65t+350 as the position function, where hh is in feet, tt in seconds. Ignore air resistance.)
A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 24.0 m/s. How fast is it moving when it is at a height of 14.0 m? How much time is required to reach this height? Why are there two answers to part B?
