Apparently, Felix chose this tower as his testing location due to a strangely soft and cushiony rock formation at the base. Meaning the cats will land unharmed. A) If Felix flings the felines flat, meaning no initial vertical velocity, how long will it take the cats to land on a platform 10 meters below? Just consider the one, vertical, dimension?

A ball is thrown horizontally with a velocity of 5 m/s from the top of a tall cliff. Neglecting air drag, a) What is the speed of the ball 2 seconds later. b) What vertical distance has the ball fallen 2.0 seconds later? You must include a sketch to solve
On the Martian moon of Phobos, the escape speed is only 11.3 m/s . While standing on Phobos, suppose a person throws a baseball at a speed equal to the escape speed. The figure shows four possible directions in which the person could throw the ball at that speed.In which of these directions will the ball escape from Phobos? Could I please have some direction on how I may approach this? direction A only direction A or B direction A, B, or C direction A, B, C, or D none of these
A pitcher throws a fastball horizontally toward home plate 18.39 meters away. If the ball is traveling at a constant speed of 40.0m/s, neglecting air friction, how long does it take for the ball to get to home plate? What are the givens in the problem? What are the unknowns? What equation should you use to find the unknown? What is the correct answer?
A toy rocket moving vertically upward passes by a 1.8 m-high window whose sill is 7.0 mm above the ground. The rocket takes 0.16 ss to travel the 1.8 mm height of the window. a) What was the launch speed of the rocket? Assume the propellant is burned very quickly at blastoff. b) How high will the rocket go?
A book slides off a horizontal table top with a speed of 1.10 m/sm/s. It strikes the floor after a time of 0.410 ss. Ignore air resistance.

An arrow is shot from a height of 1.95 m toward a cliff of height H. It is shot with a velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal. It lands on the top edge of the cliff 3.79 s later. What is the height H of the cliff in m? What is the maximum height reached by the arrow along its trajectory in meters?What is the arrow's speed just befoe hitting the cliff in m/s?
Hi, can anyone help me with this scenario? I'm very confused and now stuck on the questions. On the apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hit the ball with a speed of 25 m/s at an angle 26 degrees above the horizontal. A.) How long was the ball in flight? B.).How far did it travel? C.) Ignoring air resistance, how much farther would it travel on the moon than on the earth? Thank you for all your help!
