What was velocity of each stone at instant it hit the water

Reference no: EM13679140

A mountain climber stands at the top of a 50 m cliff that over hangs a calm pool of water. She throws two stones vertically downward 1.00 sec apart and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone had an initial velocity of -2.00 m/s (a) how long after release of the first stone did the two stones hit the water? (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have had, given that they hit the water simultaneously? (c) What was the velocity of each stone at the instant it hit the water?

Heat flows from a reservoir : Heat flows from a reservoir at 373 K to a reservoir at 273 K through a 0.42-m copper [thermal conductivity 390 J/(s·m·C°)] rod with a cross-sectional area of 9.1x10 -4 m 2 (see the drawing). The heat then leaves the 273-K reservoir and enters a Car..

How much charge is on the inside surface of hollow sphere : A 3.50nC point charge is placed at the centre of a hollow metal sphere that has an inner radius 4.90cm and an outer radius 12.0cm. The metal sphere itself is charged to 7.00nC. How much charge is on the outside surface of the hollow sphere? How much ..

Magnitude and direction of the weakest electric field : A proton is traveling horizontally to the right at 4.10×10^6 m/s. Discover (a) the magnitude and (b) direction of the weakest electric field that can bring the proton uniformly to rest over a distance of 3.10 cm.

The ring getting hooked on the center post : Why does the procedure of gently vibrating the force table allow the ring to discover its true equilibrium position (and thus indicate if the system is truly balanced)? Suppose that there is no problem with the ring getting hooked on the center post.

What was velocity of each stone at instant it hit the water : A mountain climber stands at the top of a 50 m cliff that over hangs a calm pool of water. She throws two stones vertically downward 1.00 sec apart and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone had an initial velocity of -2.00 m/s. Wh..

Scattering amplitudes-ideas of leading singularities : Broadly speaking how do ideas of leading singularities and Grassmanian help in curing infrared divergences when calculating N=4 scattering amplitudes?

External observables-mass-electric charge-angular momentum : From the "no hair theorem" we know that black holes have only three characteristic external observables, mass, electric charge and angular momentum (except the possible exceptions in the higher dimensional theories).

Horizontal frictionless floor is pulled with a cord : A 3.76 kg block located on a horizontal frictionless floor is pulled with a cord that exerts a force F=10.1 N at an angle = 19.0° above the horizontal, as shown. What is the speed of the block 3.90 seconds after it starts moving?

What is the absolute uncertainty of the wavelength : If the relative uncertainty of the measurement of the slit separation d above is 6.3%, and other measurement uncertainties are neglected, what is the absolute uncertainty of the wavelength (to two important figures)?
