Wondering if you have enough rope to rappel to the ground, you drop a rock off the top, and hear the sound of it hitting the bottom 4.2 seconds later. Find the height of the cliff ignoring the time that the sound takes to travel back to you from the bottom.

Askydiver weighing 140 lb (including equipment) falls vertically downward from an altitude of 19,000 ft and opens the parachute after 18 s of free fall. assume that the force of air resistance, which is directed opposite to the velocity, is of magnitude 0.55|v| when the parachute is closed and is of magnitude 14|v| when the parachute is open, where the velocity v is measured in ft/s. assume that acceleration due to gravity has magnitude 32 ft/s/s; remember that weight is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. (a) find the speed of the skydiver when the parachute opens. (b) find the distance fallen before the parachute opens. (c) what is the limiting velocity vl after the parachute opens? (d) determine how long the sky diver is in the air after the parachute opens. (e) plot the graph of velocity versus time from the beginning of the fall until the skydiver reaches the ground.

A0.580-kg rock is tied to the end of a string and is swung in a circle with a radius of 0.500 meters. the velocity of the rock is 4.50 m/s. what is the centripetal force acting on the rock? 15.5 n 5.22 n 69.8 n 23.5 n

Yvette hangs a 2.4kg bird feeder in the middle of a rope tied between two trees. the feeder creates a tension of 480 n in each side of the the rope.
