A rock is dropped from the top of a vertical cliff and takes 3.00 s to reach the ground below the cliff. A second rock is thrown vertically from the cliff, and it takes this rock 2.00 s to reach the ground below the cliff from the time it is released. With what velocity was the second rock thrown, assuming no air resistance?

A rock is thrown directly upward from the edge of a flat roof of a building that is 56.3 meters tall. The rock misses the building on its way down, and is observed to strike the ground 4.00 seconds after being thrown. Take the acceleration due to gravity to have magnitude and neglect any effects of air resistance. With what speed was the rock thrown?

A rock is dropped from the top of a vertical cliff and takes 4.3 ss to reach the ground below the cliff. A second rock is thrown vertically downward from the cliff, and it takes this rock 2.00 s to reach the ground below the cliff from the time it is released. With what speed was the second rock thrown, assuming no air resistance?
