32. A stone is thrown downward at 8 m/s from a height of 22 m. At the same time, a stone is thrown upward from 2 m the ground with a speed of 17 m/s. a. At what point in time do their paths intersect? b. At what height do their paths intersect?

Step 1
For the stone thrown downward, we can use the equation: h = h0 + v0t + (1/2)gt^2 where h is the height, h0 is the initial height, v0 is the initial velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and t is the time. Plugging in the values, we have: 0 = 22 + Show more…

1) A stone is thrown vertically upward at a speed of 47.90 m/s at time t=0. A second stone is thrown upward with the same speed 1.370 seconds later. At what time are the two stones at the same height? 2) At what height do the two stones pass each other? 3) What is the downward speed of the first stone as they pass each other?

Two stones are thrown simultaneously, one straight upward from the base of a cliff and the other straight downward from the top of the cliff. The height of the cliff is 6.12 m. The stones are thrown with the same speed of 8.20 m/s. Find the location (above the base of the cliff) of the point where the stones cross paths.
