2) A ball is dropped from rest at the top of a high cliff. It takes 10.00 seconds for the ball to reach the ground below. Find: a) the height of the cliff, b) the velocity of the ball hitting the ground below, c) the time it takes for the ball to fall half of the cliff's height, and d) the velocity at this halfway point. (Remember acceleration due to gravity is -9.800 m/s^2).

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...
