You can perform a popular trick by dropping any peso bill (Ex. 500 peso bill )lengthwise
through the thumb and forefinger of a classmate. Tell your classmate to grab the peso bill as
fast as possible and he/she can keep the money if he/she catches it. The length of the peso
bill is 15.7 cm and the average human reaction time is about 0.20 s. Will your classmate catch
the bill and keep the money?

- Bob proposed Alice to a marriage on the very top of a 30m building. Alice said yes. Bob then put the ring on Alice’s finger. Alice was very happy. She threw her hands up in the air. Unfortunately, the ring slipped from her finger and fell down due to gravity.Bob set up a camera to record the moment. Thus, he look at the footage and determine that the ring was going out of Alice’s hand with speed of vi =10m/s at an angle of θ=30 . The dimension of the building is given below. (a) If the ring were to land on the terrace, how long would it take?(b) If the ring were to land on the Lawn, how long would it take?(c) Where should Bob search for the ring? Terrace or lawn?

After 2s passed, a person who stands at the base of the same building throws a separate ball in the upward direction with a speed of 20 m/s. Assumes the two balls are traveling on the same vertical path. Will the two balls collide with each other? If so, what are their velocities as they collide with each other?arrow_forwardJosh runs and jumps into a stationary shopping cart. He jumps in with a horizontal speed of 7.3 m/s.

I am working on a problem with motion. The questions asks me to calculate the maximum height (h1), total time (t2), and speed of a ball right before it hits the ground. The question states that A person is throwing a ball upward into the air with an initial speed Vo = 10m/s. Assume that the instant when the ball is released, the person's hand is at a height ho = 1.5m. The speed of the ball at its peak height is zero, and the question needs to be solved in ascending part and descending part. I don't understand how to solve for the maximum height. What is the correct formula to use and why? For other questions like this, I will be able to solve them if I know the formulas for the ascending of the ball and the descent of the ball as well as the explanation. Thank you. For the sake of the question, the ball is being thrown straight up.arrow_forwardYou throw a ball straight up from a roof of a building. The ball leaves your hand at a point even with the roof railing with an upward speed of 15m/s. The ball is then in free fall. On its way back down, it just misses the railing. After 6.0s from release, the ball then hits the ground. What is the velocity of the ball upon impact on the ground? 198.5m/s -198.5m/s 352m/s -352m/sarrow_forward
