Problem 1010
A stone is thrown vertically up from the ground with a velocity of 300 ft per sec (91.44 m/s). How long must one wait before dropping a second stone from the top of a 600-ft (182.88-m) tower if the two stones are to pass each other 200 ft (60.96 m) from the top of the tower?
Problem 1008
A stone is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 48.3 ft per sec (14.72 m per sec). One second later another stone is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 96.6 ft per sec (29.44 m per sec). How far above the ground will the stones be at the same level?
Problem 1007
A stone is dropped from a captive balloon at an elevation of 1000 ft (304.8 m). Two seconds later another stone is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 248 ft/s (75.6 m/s). If g = 32 ft/s2 (9.75 m/s2), when and where the stones pass each other?
Problem 1004
A ball is dropped from the top of a tower 80 ft (24.38 m) high at the same instant that a second ball is thrown upward from the ground with an initial velocity of 40 ft/sec (12.19 m/s). When and where do they pass, and with what relative velocity?
Problem 1003
A stone is thrown vertically upward and return to earth in 10 sec. What was its initial velocity and how high did it go?
