From a height of 1.5 m above the surface of the moon (no friction) a penny is dropped. The travel time and the velocity at arrival on the ground are ...?
Acceleration due to gravity at moon, a = 1.622 m/s^2
h = 1.5 m
h = u*t + 1/2*a*t^2
1.5 = 0 + 1/2*1.622*t^2
t = 1.36 s
V = u + a*t
V = 0 + 1.622 * 1.36
V = 2.21 m/s

a. An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.65 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 7.40 m/s from a height of 1.55 m above the ground. Will the rock reach the top of the wall? If so, how fast is it moving when it reaches the top. If not, what initial speed must it have to reach the top? b. To defend the castle, a rock is thrown downwards from the top of the wall with...
1. A rock is dropped from a bridge that is 15 m above the surface of the river. How long does it take for the rock to hit the water? 2. A ball is thrown upward from the edge of the roof of a 20 m tall building with an initial velocity of 15 m/s. a) What is the maximum height reached by the ball? b) How much time does it take for the ball to reach the ground? c)...
There is a planet with two moons, Moon D and Moon P. Moon A is located in a stable circular orbit 2398 km from the surface of the planet, has an orbital period of 19 hours, and was a magnificent moon which served as the intellectual center of the whole sector. The other moon - Moon B - is a considerably smaller body. Moon D is in a stable circular orbit 59850 km from the surface of the planet and...
A cylinder is dropped from rest at a height of 3.71 m above the ground. How long after it is release does the cylinder reach the ground (in seconds)? What is the instantaneous velocity of the cylinder just before it hits the ground (in m/s)?
A 900 g rubber ball is dropped from height 17.5 m, and it rebounds to height 5.17 m. Assuming there is no air friction and the average force exerted by the ground is 24.5 N, find the time the ball was in contact with the ground.
A ball is dropped from a height 24 m above the ground at t=0.0. Each time it bounces from the ground, its rebound speed is 60% of its impact speed. At the instant the first ball hits the ground, a second ball is released from the same place. Take g = 9.8 m/s2. At what height above the ground will they collide? (Take the ground as y=0.0 m)

part 1 of 3A tennis ball is dropped from 1.79 m above the ground. It rebounds to a height of 1.01 m. With what velocity does it hit the ground? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. (Let down be negative.) Answer in units of m/s. part 2 of 3 With what velocity does it leave the ground? Answer in units of m/s. part 3 of 3 If the tennis ball were in contact with the ground for 0.0126 s. find the acceleration given to the...
52. An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) Determine the distance traveled during the first second. (b) Determine the final velocity at which the object hits the ground. (c) Determine the distance traveled during the last second of motion before hitting the ground.
A stationary helicopter is hovering at a height of 65.0 m above the Earth, and an object is dropped vertically downwards. Neglecting air resistance: (a) How much time does it take for the package to reach the ground? (5 marks) (b) Calculate the final velocity of the package at the moment it hits the ground (5 marks).
