Two objects are launched horizontally from a cliff, one of them is launched at a much higher velocity. Which object will hit the ground first?

anonymous · Answer

The faster one
The slower one
THey will hit at the same time <--- My answer

anonymous · Answer

If they are both the same mass they would hit the ground at the same time. So yea your answer makes sense

Yay! Thank you for answering! I got some more questions, do you mind helping me with some? @lilfrog2014

anonymous · Answer

I can try lol

anonymous · Answer

Yay! Thank you!
What is the approximate instantaneous velocity of a freely falling object 10 seconds after it is released from rest, neglecting air resistance? (Round g to 10 m/s^2 instead of using the more precise value of 9.8 m/s^2)?
10 m/s
100 m/s <-- My answer
50 m/s
1000 m/s

anonymous · Answer

10m/s^2 is 10*10 so that's correct

anonymous · Answer

Yay awesome!
Approximately how far will a freely falling object fall in the first 10 seconds after being released from rest, negelecting air resistance? (Approximate g as 10 m/s^2)
500m
100m <--- My answer
1000m
200m

That's the same thing I think -- I'm gonna guess you'd be right given the information that they give in the question

anonymous · Answer

If anything you ask I end up getting wrong I'm sorry lol I'm not very good at this stuff but may I ask what grade you are in?

Im in 12th. I just dont understand the last two questions i asked because it seems like there's not enough information. Ill ask another question, and this time, do you think you could give me a formula to be able to solve it? Im just confused. Lol
How tall is a cliff if a rock thrown horizontally from the top takes 4 seconds to hit the ground?
128.8 ft
257.6 ft
64.4 ft

Umm hang on 1 sec lol

anonymous · Answer

I had a question on a quiz exactly like this once 

I wrote
s= ut + 1/2 a t^2
s= 0 + 1/2 x 9.81 x 4^2
s= 78.48m which is 258.5 ft and that's closest to answer b
