A stone is thrown straight up from the edge of a roof, 950 feet above the ground, at a speed of 14 feet per second.

A. Remembering that the acceleration due to gravity is -32 feet per second squared, how high is the stone 3 seconds later?

B. At what time does the stone hit the ground?

C. What is the velocity of the stone when it hits the ground?

A stone thrown vertically on Mars. Suppose a stone is thrown vertically upward from the edge of a cliff on Mars (where the acceleration due to gravity is only about 12 ft/s^2) with an initial velocity of 64 ft/s from a height of 192 ft above the ground. The height S of the stone above the ground after t seconds is given by s=-6t^2+64t+192 a. Determine the velocity v of the stone after t seconds b. When does the stone...

An object is thrown vertically upward from a platform 80 feet above the ground with a velocity of 64 feet per second. Given the fact that the acceleration due to gravity is approximately -32 ft/sec/sec, a) use antidifferentiation to determine the ‘velocity’, v(t), and ‘position above the ground’, s(t), functions; use these functions to determine: b) when the object reaches its highest point; c) what the highest point above the ground is; d) when it hits the ground; e) the...

You throw a tennis ball North with an initial speed of 24 feet per second, at an angle of elevation 30° above horizontal, releasing the ball 4 feet above the ground. A steady wind imparts a constant acceleration of 3 feet per second squared Eastward. Acceleration due to gravity is a constant 32 feet per second squared downward. Throughout the problem, let East be the positive x direction, North the positive y direction, and up the positive z direction. Let...
