Aunt Matilda flips a penny straight upward at 1.5 m/s. It falls down to the floor. It hits the floor 0.75 seconds after she flips it up. How high was Aunt Matilda's hand above the ground when she flipped the coin up?
Aunt Matilda flips a penny straight upward at 1.5 m/s. It falls down to the floor....
Problem A) A penny is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 13 m/s. Exactly 2 seconds later a nickel is thrown upward along the same path as the penny at a speed of 15 m/s. Ignoring air resistance, (a) at what time do the penny and nickel collide? (b) At what height does the collision occur? (c) Is the penny on its way up or down when the collision occurs?
A ball falls from height of 19.5 m, hits the floor, and rebounds vertically upward to height of 15.0 m. Assume that mall 0.390 kg. (a) What is the impulse (in kg. m/s) delivered to the ball by the floor? (b) If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.0400 seconds, what is the average force (in N) the floor exerts on the ball?
A tennis ball is shot straight up from the ground. After traveling 4.00 m, the ball passes a 4.00 m high window and then continues straight up until it loses all its upward velocity and falls to the ground. During the last second of its flight before it hits the ground, the ball drops 20.0 m. a) What is the maximum height above the ground reached by the ball? b) What is the total time for the ball’s flight? c)...
A 0.3 kg ball falls down and hits the floor with a speed of 15 m/s. Then it bounces up with a speed of 9 m/s. The impulse that acts on the ball is equal to: Select one: a. 7.20 N.s downwards stion b. 7.20 N.s upwards C 1.80 Ns upwards d. 1.80 N.s downwards
A ball is dropped straight down towards the floor from a height of 1.5 m. It bounced back up to a height of 1.2 m. How fast would you have to throw it at the floor for it to return to a height of 1.5 m? Hint: figure out how much energy it loses during the bounce.

A coin is tossed upward from an initial height of 6 m above the ground, with an initial speed of 9.6 m/s m/s. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2 Take the point of release to be y0 = 0. Choose UPWARD as positive y direction. Pay attention to the signs of position, velocity and acceleration. Keep 2 decimal places in all answers. (a) Find the coin’s maximum height in meters above the ground? (b) How long...
After solving a difficult physics problem, an excited student throws his book straight up. It leaves his hand at 3.9 m/s from 1.5 m above the ground. (a) How much time Moes it take until the book hits the floor? (b) What's its velocity then?
A package is dropped from a helicopter moving upward at 1.5 m/s. If it takes 16.0 s before the package strikes the ground, how high above the ground was the package when it was released if air resistance is negligible? Give your answer in meters.
An object is thrown upward from 1 m above the ground. It travels vertically up, reaches a maximum height of 2.5 m above ground, falls back down, and is caught at exactly the same position it was thrown 1 s after it was thrown. What was the average velocity of the object? Click the answer you think is right 1.5 m/s 0 m/s 3 m/s
