A mountain climber stands at the top of a 41.5-m cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. She throws two stones vertically downward 1.00 s apart and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone had an initial velocity of -1.40 m/s. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) (a) How long after release of the first stone did the two stones hit the water? (Round your answer to at least two decimal places.) s...

An 85.4-kg climber is scaling the vertical wall of a mountain. His safety rope is made of nylon that, when stretched, behaves like a spring with a spring constant of 1.19 103 N/m. He accidentally slips and falls freely for 0.815 m before the rope runs out of slack. How much is the rope stretched when it breaks his fall and momentarily brings him to rest?
