Nam Dosan throws his baseball from the ground floor directly up in the air with an initial velocity of 8.5 m/s. Seo Dalmi is on the second floor which is 4.0 m above, waiting to catch the ball. Given the ball’s initial velocity, will it reach Dalmi?
Natalia throws a ball straight up. The ball leaves the her hand with a speed of 12.0 m/s when the hand is 1.70 m above the ground. How long is the ball in the air before it hits the ground? (She moves her hand out of the way.)
A juggler throws a beanbag straight up into the air with initial speed 6.00 m/s. The beanbag leaves the juggler's hand 1.50 m above the floor. The juggler fails to catch the beanbag as it falls to the floor. (a) How long is the beanbag in the air? (b) What is its impact speed?

- On top of a tower (30 m from the ground), an object is launchedstraight up with an initial velocity ?0. The object continues its flight in free fall to a maximum height of 65 meter from top of the tower. After reaching the maximum height, the object falls back to the ground.arrow_forwardA ball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 10:0 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 55 m above the ground. The bll just misses the edge of the roof on its way down. Determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground.arrow_forwardA ball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.3 s after being hit. Then 2.0 s after reaching its maximum height, the ball barely clears a fence that is 103 m from where it was hit.
