A ball is thrown upward from the edge of a cliff with velocity $20.0 \mathrm{m} \mathrm{s}^{-1} .$ It reaches the bottom of the cliff 6.0 s later. (a) How high is the cliff? (b) With what speed does the ball hit the ground?
Mechanics
Motion with constant acceleration
a) Calculate the height (in m) of a cliff if it takes 2.4 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the top of the cliff with an initial velocity of 6 m/s. b) How long (in s) would it take to reach the ground if it is thrown straight down with the same speed?
