In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a balloon nearly at an altitude of 3150 m above the ground. Suppose a coin falls from Menin’s pocket during his walk. How high above the ground is the coin when its speed is 60.0 m/s?

A student throws a heavy red ball horizontally from a balcony of a tall building with an initial speed vi. At the same time, a second student drops a lighter blue ball from the balcony. Neglecting air resistance, which statement is true? (a) The blue ball reaches the ground first. (b) The balls reach the ground at the same instant. (c) The red ball reaches the ground first. (d) Both balls hit the ground with the same speed. (e) None of statements (a) through (d) is true.
A student is on the roof of the SP building, 15.0 m above the ground. Your physics instructor, who is 163 cm tall, is walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 0.35 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your instructors head, where should the instructor be when you release the egg? Assume the egg is in free fall and air friction is “negligible”.
Three identical rocks are thrown from the top of a building. Rock # 1 is thrown horizontally with a speed of 12 m/s. Rock #2 is thrown straight upward with a speed of 12 m/s. Rock #3 is thrown straight downward with a speed of 12 m/s. There is no air resistance and none of the rocks come into contact with anything before they hit the ground at the base of the building. Compare the rocks' speeds just before they strike the ground at the base of the building by ranking them from fastest to slowest. O Rock #1, Rock #3, Rock #2 O Rock #3, Rock #2, Rock #1 O Rocks #1 and #2 have the same final speed and #3 is slowest. O Rock #2 is the fastest while Rocks #1 and #3 are tied for slowest. O All three rocks have the same final speed.
A ski jumper starts from rest 47.5 m above the ground on a frictionless track and flies off the track at an angle of 45.0° above the horizontal and at a height of 18.0 m above the ground. Neglect air resistance. (a) What is her speed when she leaves the track? m/s(b) What is the maximum altitude she attains after leaving the track? m(c) Where does she land relative to the end of the track? m
A golf ball is launched from the ground with a speed of 1.141 m/s at 45° above the horizontal. What is its speed just before it strikes ground? 1 m/s 1.141 m/s 2 m/s 0.707 m/s None of these.
A skater with mass 66 kg is skating on a horizontal surface at a constant speed 4.2 m/s. There is a ramp ahead, and the skater has just enough speed to make it to the top of the ramp (meaning the speed at the top of the ramp is 0 m/s). What is the height of the ramp in the unit of meters? Use g = 10 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.
A small rocket is launched straight up. When at a height of 5.0km and velocity of 200.0m/s, it releases its booster and enters free fall. Neglecting air friction, what is the velocity of the rocket at a height of 6.0km on its way up? 143m/s 200m/s 244m/s 397m/s
An object is hovering about the surface of the earth. It begins to experience a gravitational acceleration of 2.0 m/s2. How high is it above the surface of the earth?
On a distant planet (NOT EARTH!!!) an object is allowed to slide 30.0 m down a frictionless ramp, with an incline of 30.0° (as shown in the diagram) with an initial speed of 6.0 m/s. Once the object reaches the bottom of the ramp, it is allowed to slide across a rough surface (u=D0.15) for 15.0 m, at which point its speed is 2.0 m/s. What is the gravitational field strength (g) on the different planet? 30.0 m 30.0 15.0 m
A rock is kicked horizontally at a speed of 16 m/s from the edge of a cliff. The rock strikes the ground 65 m from the foot of the cliff of height H as suggested in the figure, which is not drawn to scale. Neglect air resistance. H 16 m/s What is the approximate value of H, the height of the cliff? 150 m 27m 54 m 81m 65 m 300 m
You shoot a ball straight up with an initial speed of 8490 m/s. When the surface of the earth, what is the speed of the ball? O 2146 m/s reaches a height of 4.0 x 10 6 m above O 2956 m/s O 3546 m/s 4009 m/s 4588 m/s O 4876 m/s
A cannon fires a shell traveling 150 m/s in the horizontal direction and 150 m/s in the vertical direction. The cannon is on a cliff 100 meters above the ocean water below. What is the maximum altitude (in meters) above the water the cannon ball reaches?
