PLEASE EXPLAIN/ SHOW WORK!!!
1. A spelunker (cave explorer) drops a stone from rest into a hole. The speed of sound is 343 m/s in air, and the sound of the stone striking the bottom is heard 1.36 s after the stone is dropped. How deep is the hole? (m)
2. A stone is dropped into a river from a bridge 120 ft above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically down 1.00 s after the first is dropped. Both stones strike the water at the same time.
(a) What was the initial speed of the second stone? (ft/s)
3. To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking. Then the car slows down at a constant rate. Suppose that the total distance moved by your car during these two phases is 56.7 m when its initial speed is 79.0 km/h, and 24.4 m when the initial speed is 46.8 km/h.
(a) What is your reaction time?
(b) What is the magnitude of the deceleration?
