An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.85 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 8.00 m/s from a height of 1.50 m above the ground. (a) Will the rock reach the top of the wall?

Yes No

(b) If so, what is its speed at the top? If not, what initial speed must it have to reach the top?
m/s

(c) Find the change in speed of a rock thrown straight down from the top of the wall at an initial speed of 8.00 m/s and moving between the same two points.
m/s

(d) Does the change in speed of the downward-moving rock agree with the magnitude of the speed change of the rock moving upward between the same elevations?

Yes No

(e) Explain physically why it does or does not agree.

Suppose someone throws a rock straight down from the roof of wtimer Hall. If the magitude of the inital downward velocity of the rock was 12 m/s, and the height from which it was thrown was 12 m.How long would it take the rock to hit the ground? The correct answer is .762 seconds, however I'm not sure how to get there. What formula do you use? Thanks and please explain steps clearly.

A retaining wall against a mud slide is to be constructed by placing 1.2 m-high rectangular concrete blocks (ρconcrete = 2700 kg/m3 ) side by side, as shown in Figure 1. The friction coefficient between the ground and the concrete blocks is f = 0.3, and the density of the mud is about 1800 kg/m3 . There is concern that the concrete blocks may slide or tip over the lower left edge as the mud level rises. a) Determine the...
