Homework Statement
A stone is dropped from the top of a tall cliff(with zero initial speed), and 1.00s later a second stone is thrown vertically downward w/ a speed of 16 m/s. How far below the top cliff will the second stone overtake the first
Homework Equations
distance = vot + 1/2a(tsquared)
The Attempt at a Solution
I attempted this so many different ways but I'm just not getting the answer. I know the vo of the first stone is zero and the acceleration is -9.8 m/s squared. I think that the second stones initial velocity is 16 m/s.
