At t = 0, a stone is dropped from a cliff above a lake; 2.4 seconds later another stone is thrown downward from the same point with an initial speed of 35 m/s. Both stones hit the water at the same instant. Find the height of the cliff in meters.
Let h = height of cliff.
Thus, for the first stone,
-h = -1/2 g t^2
For the second stone,
-h = -35(t - 2.4) - 1/2 g(t-2.4)^2
Subtracting these two equations, and solving for t,
t = 4.8585 s
Thus, solving for h,
h = 116 m [ANSWER]

A first stone is dropped from the roof of the building. 2s later a second stone is thrown straight down with an initial speed of 30 m/s. It is observed that both stones strike the ground at the same time. Determine the taken for the stones to strike the ground and the height of the roof from the ground.

A stone is thrown vertically upward at a speed of 20.10 m/s at time t=0. A second stone is thrown upward with the same speed 1.510 seconds later. At what time are the two stones at the same height? At what height do the two stones pass each other? What is the downward speed of the first stone as they pass each other?
