Bob drops a ball from rest out the window of a building. At the very same instant Phyllis releases a ball upward with an initial speed of 11.0 m/s from a point 20.0 m directly below Bob.
(a) At what height above Phyllis do the balls collide?
(b) Is the ball thrown by Phyllis moving upward or downward when
the collision occurs? Explain

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building with
height 50 meters. At the same instant, you throw a ball upward from
ground level carefully aimed to hit the falling ball. If the
initial speed of your throw is 19 m/s, then the two balls collide

A ball is thrown upward from ground level at 25 m/s. At the same
instant, a second ball is dropped from rest from a building 15 m
high. How high above the ground will the two balls be when they are
at the same height? Please break it out to where it makes sense.

A small (25 g) high-bounce ball is stacked on top of a large
(100 g) high-bounce ball, and the two balls are dropped to the
floor together from a height of 2 m. The large ball strikes the
floor first and rebounds upward to collide with the falling small
ball. At the instant of the collision, the large ball has a
velocity of 4.4 m/s upward, and the small ball has a velocity of
4.4 m/s downward. If the collision...

3- Your friend drops a tennis ball from the window of her
apartment (66.1 m above the ground). One second later you throw a
rock (as a projectile) from the ground as shown in the figure. The
rock and the ball collide at x = 32.6 m, y = 22.0 m measured from
where the rock is thrown as shown in the figure.
a) Determine how many seconds after the tennis ball is released
the collision takes place.

A ball is thrown vertically upward from a window that is 3.6 m above the ground....
A ball is thrown vertically upward from a window that is 3.6 m
above the ground. The ball's initial speed is 2.8 m/s and the
acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.
a) What is the ball's speed when it hits the ground?
b) How long after the first ball is thrown should a second ball
be simply dropped from the same window so that both balls hit the
ground at the same time?

A blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 21.4 m/s,
from a height of 0.9 meters above the ground. 2.6 seconds after the
blue ball is thrown, a red ball is thrown down with an initial
speed of 9.2 m/s from a height of 25.3 meters above the ground. The
force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having
a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s2.

drop yours from the window. At some location, the balls pass each
other. Is this location (a) at the halfway point between window and
