A thief throws a ring down at his partner at 4.0 m/s. It is 9.0 m to the partner’s hands. a) Find the velocity of the ring when the partner catches it.

b) How long will it take for the ring to pass between the two crooks?

a) Vf = 13.87[m/s]

b) t = 1 [s]

Explanation:

a)

To solve this problem we can use kinematics equations:

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 4 [m/s]

h = elevation = 9 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]

b)

Now using the next equation we can find the time

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
