A stone is dropped from a bridge. A second stone is thrown downwards 2.0 s later with an initial speed of 25 m/s. They both reach the water below at the same instant. (a) How long did it take for the first stone to reach the water? (b) How high is the bridge? (c) What are the speeds of the two stones just before they hit the water?

A rock is dropped from the top of a tall tower. Half a second later another rock, twice as massive as the first, is dropped. Ignoring air resistance, they strike the ground with the same kinetic energy they strike the ground more than half a second apart. the distance between the rocks increases while both are falling. the acceleration is greater for the more massive rock.
