A boy stands on a diving board and tosses a stone into a swimming pool. The stone is thrown from a height of 2.50 m above the water surface with a velocity of 4.00 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. As the stone strikes the water surface, it immediately slows down to exactly half the speed it had when it struck the water and maintains that speed while in the water. After the stone enters the water, it moves in a straight line in the direction of the velocity it had when it struck the water. If the pool is 3.00 m deep, how much time elapses between when the stone is thrown and when it strikes the bottom of the pool?

4. A boy stands on a diving board and tosses a stone into a swimming pool. The stone is thrown from a height of 2.8 m above the water surface with a velocity of 5.6 m/s at 72 degrees above the horizontal. a) First determine the time it is airborne. (I got 1.48 sec) b) Now find its impact velocity. (Vx=2 m/s and Vy=9.17 m/s) As the stone impacts the water, it instantly slows down to half its previous velocity,...

1) A diver of mass 43.0kg stands on the end of a uniform diving board over the water. The board is 7.00m long and has a mass of 75kg. The end of the board opposite the diver is attached to the platform. The bounce of the board is adjusted by a roller underneath that can be moved back and forth. The roller is 2.80 m from the fixed end of the board. a) What are the magnitude and the direction...
