A lamp is 50ftdot above the ground. A ball is dropped from the same height from a point 30ftdot away from the light pole. If ball falls a distance s=16 t^2ftdot in t second, then how fast is the shadow of the ball moving along the ground 1/2s later?

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff 200 m high with initial speeds of 15 ms^(-1) and 30 ms^(-1) . Verify that the graph shown in Fig. correctly represents the time variation of the relative position of the second stone with respect to the first. Neglect air resistance and assume that the stones do not rebound after hitting the ground. Take g = 10 ms^(-2) . Give the equations for the linear and curved parts of the plot.

The distance of an object falling is a function of time t and can be expressed as s(t) = -16t^(2). Graph the function and determine if it is one-to-one.
