A steel ball is dropped from a building's roof and passes a window, taking 0.131 s to fall from the top to the bottom of the window, a distance of 1.12 m. It then falls to a sidewalk and bounces back past the window, moving from bottom to top in 0.131 s. Assume that the upward flight is an exact reverse of the fall. The time spent below the bottom of the window is 1.94 s. How tall is the building?

A 0.5 kg ball is dropped from a window. An archer shoots a 0.05 kg arrow to intercept the ball. When the ball is impaled it is traveling at -2 m/s in the y direction, and the arrow is traveling at 35 m/s at an angle of 20 degrees. What is the velocity of the pair after the collision in vector notation, magnitude, and direction? What is the impulse of the arrow?
