You throw a rock off of a cliff in the horizontal direction with a velocity, v. One second later you throw an identical rock with the same velocity, v, in the horizontal direction. What is true about the distance between the two rocks beginning after you throw the second one? Whether the distance between the rocks will increase or decrease depends on the velocity v with which they are thrown. The distance between the rocks will increase as time passes. It depends on the height of the cliff. The distance between the rocks will stay the same as time passes. It cannot be determined. The distance between the rocks will decrease as time passes. 1

Two stones are separated by a vertical distance y (in meters) from each other. One stone is thrown down with an initial velocity v01 = -35 m/s and the other is thrown up from the ground with an initial v02 = 17 m/s at the same time the other is thrown. How far, in meters, must they be separated so they hit the ground at the same time? What is the impact velocity, in meters per second, of the first stone? What is the impact velocity, in meters per second, of the second stone?

A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck, North Dakota --- a distance of 180 miles. Because he is flying into a headwind, the trip takes him 2 hours. On the way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1 hour and 30 minutes. What is the plane's speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing?A. his plane speed equals mph.? B. the wind speed equals mph.?

A spy in a speed boat is being chased down a river by government officials in a faster craft. Just as the officials' boat pulls up next to the spy's boat, both reach the edge of a 7.3 m waterfall. If the spy's speed is 11 m/s and the officials' speed is 27 m/s, how far apart will the two vessels be when they land below the waterfall?
In an experiment two identical rocks are simultaneously thrown from the edge of a cliff a distance h0h0 above the ground. Rock A is thrown vertically upward with speed v0v0 and rock B is thrown vertically downward with speed v0v0. Rock A and rock B strike the ground at times tAtA and tBtB, respectively. Consider the positive vertical direction to be upward. (a) On the axes given below, sketch and label graphs of the velocity as a function of time for rock A and rock B. Label the time tBtB. Times tAtA and 12tA12tA are given on the graph. (b) Rock B hits the ground at time tBtB. Derive an equation for the time tAtA it takes rock A to hit the ground in terms of v0v0, tBtB, and physical constants, as appropriate.

I need to drive from A to C via B at total distance of ΔL. The distance from A to B is ΔL1, from B to C is ΔL2. I have time Δt to get from A to C, so I figure I can make it if I average <v> = ΔL/Δt for the entire trip. Going from A to B, the traffic is heavy and I can only average a speed v1. How fast do I have to go from B to C in order to average <v> for the whole trip? Write an equation expressing v2 (the speed I need to average going from B to C) in terms of the other symbols given: v1, ΔL1, ΔL2, and Δt.
