I have a few problems I don't understand on my homework...I just need help on HOW to set these stupid problems up to find the answer!!
(1) a ball thrown vertically upward is caught after 2.63seconds. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. Find the initial velocity of the ball in units of m/s.
(2) a Fathom is approx. 6ft. in length. If the distance to Mars is 3.46 x 10^7 miles, what is the distance in Fathoms?
(3) the velocity of transverse waves produced by an earthquake 3.69 km/s, while that of longitudinal waves is 6.9003 km/s. The transverse waves arrived 52.2 seconds after the longitudinal waves. How far away was the earthquake in units of km?
thank u in advance...
