Six baseball throws are shown below. In each case the baseball is thrown at the same initial speed and from the same height H above the ground. Assume that the effects of air resistance are negligible. Rank these throws according to the speed of the baseball the instant before it hits the ground. Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them. E H H largest

A student at the top of a building of height h throws one ball upward with a speed of vi and then throws a second ball downward with the same initial speed vi. Just before it reaches the ground, is the final speed of the ball thrown upward (a) larger, (b) smaller, or (c) the same in magnitude, compared with the final speed of the ball thrown downward?
A circus performer throws an apple toward a hoop held by a performer on a platform (Fig. P4.27). The thrower aims for the hoop and throws with a speed of 24 m/s. At the exact moment the thrower releases the apple, the other performer drops the hoop. The hoop falls straight down. a. At what height above the ground does the apple go through the hoop? b. If the performer on the platform did not drop the hoop, would the apple pass through it? Figure P4.27
When you throw a pebble straight up with initial speed 5.0-m/s, it reaches a maximum height H with no air resistance. At what speed should you throw it straight up so it will go 1.7-times as high? Provide your final answer in m/s.
You throw a ball up with the initial velocity 2.5 m/s. What is the velocity of that ball when it reaches the half of the maximum height? The mass of the ball is 0.340 kg.
Dodoy is a professional stuntman who has from a cliff. What should be his minimum speed as he leaps from the edge of the cliff so that he will land on a soft cushion below which is 15 m from the base of the cliff
A springbok is an antelope found in southern Africa that gets its name from its remarkable jumping ability. When a springbok is startled, it will leap straight up into the air—a maneuver called a “pronk.” A particular springbok goes into a crouch to perform a pronk. It then extends its legs forcefully,accelerating at 35 m/s2 for 0.70 m as its legs straighten. Legs fully extended, it leaves the ground and rises into the air.a. At what speed does the springbok leave the ground?b. How high does it go? We are doing this for physics homework, and I am so lost right now. Can I get some step by step or explanation as how to do this please?

A baseball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 9 m/s. Neglecting air friction, what will the speed of the baseball as it goes back to its original position/height? A) 20 m/s B) 4.5 m/s C) 9 m/s D) 15 m/s
A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up with an initial speed of 8 m/s from an initial height of 3.9 m. How much time elapses until the bowling pin returns to the same initial height
A baseball player throws a baseball straight up into the air, in the following way: Starting from a height of 1.0 m above the ground, he accelerates the ball vertically with 30. m/s2 for 0.25 s, then the ball leaves his hand and flies straight up in free fall. Let’s ignore the air resistance. Draw a carefully labeled sketch of the situation. Calculate the velocity of the ball as it leaves the player’s hand. How high does the ball go relative to its initial position (yo=1.0 m)? Shows all work please.
A rock is thrown downward from the top of a 40.0 m tower with an initial speed of 12 m/s. Assuming negligible air resistance, what is the speed of the rock just before hitting the ground? a) 28 m/s b) 784 m/s c) 56 m/s d) More information is needed. e) 30 m (Help me answer this question with easiest formula possible)
