Two rocks are thrown from the top of a very tall tower. One of them is thrown vertically up with an initial velocity of vup = 15.4 m/s. The other rock is thrown horizontally to the right with an initial velocity of vright = 11.5 m/s. (See figure.) How far will the rocks be from each other after 4.08 s? (Neglect air resistance and assume that the rocks will not hit the ground or the tower.)

Two rocks are thrown simultaneously from the top of a very tall tower with identical speeds of v = 7.90 m/s, but in two different directions. (See figure.) One of them is thrown with an angle of 10.0 degrees below the horizontal, the other one at an angle of 50.0 degrees above the horizontal. How far will the rocks be from each other after 4.90 s? (Neglect air resistance and assume that the rocks will not hit the ground.)

A 4.1-kg ball is thrown from the top of a 4-m tall building (point A) with a speed of 1 m/s at an angle 2 degrees above the horizontal. If air resistance is negligible, what is the value of the kinetic energy of the ball as it hits the ground?

A 0.240 g pebble is fired at a speed of 14.6 m/s from the top of a 20.0 m tall building. Ignoring air resistance, find the kinetic energy with which the pebble strikes the ground when the pebble is fired vertically straight up. A ball which is thrown straight up takes 3.50 s to reach the maximum height. Determine the gravitational potential energy of the ball (m = 0.145 kg) when it reaches the maximum height.
