A stone is projected vertically upwards with a velocity of 12ms'. Calculate or find: a) How long it took the stone to reach its maximum height.

b) Maximum height reached by the stone.

Two 2.0-cm-diameter disks face each other, 1.0 mm apart. they are charged to ±10 nc. what is the electric field strength between the disks? a proton is shot from the negative disk toward the positive disk. what launch speed must the proton have to just barely reach the positive disk?

According to an observer on earth, planet x is stationary. maria and samir depart earth on their spaceships at the same time, each flying at 0.5c. maria flies toward planet x and samir flies in the opposite direction. according to maria, her voyage to planet x takes 9 years. how many years does maria's voyage take according to samir?

Visualize the problem and identify special cases first examine the problem by drawing a picture and visualizing the motion. apply newton's 2nd law, ∑f⃗ =ma⃗ , to each body in your mind. don't worry about which quantities are given. think about the forces on each body: how are these consistent with the direction of the acceleration for that body? can you think of any special cases that you can solve quickly now and use to test your understanding later? one special case in this problem is if m2=0, in which case block 1 would simply fall freely under the acceleration of gravity: a⃗ 1=−gj^.
