the time from when it passed the first sensor to the time when it passed the second sensor. v^2=v0^2-2g(y-y0) where V0 is zero, because it was dropped, and y= 0.65 (the bottom sensor) and y0= 2.15 (the top sensor) This?- ConfusedStudentx10E9

so 1.5=-1/2gt^2 ? but now I'm not solving for anything becaaue I already know all these- ConfusedStudentx10E9

the only one i have given on the equation sheet is y=y0+vot-1/2gt^2 or v^2=v0^2-2g(y-y0) I don't have anything else that includes a Hight distance.- ConfusedStudentx10E9

We haven't used any equations with T or L in this course - unless they have called it something different, but I don't see anything on my eqaution list that would compare.- ConfusedStudentx10E9

is it the y=y0+vot-1/2gt^2 equation? I'm confused because v0 would be zero since it was dropped, and I already know y values for this specific time, so everything in this equation is already known right?- ConfusedStudentx10E9

I'm stuck on this problem, I've tried to follow techniques for similar questions, namely I seem to be struggling with these questions where I have to use an equation inside an equation. I've attached photos of my process so far, but obviously, I'm not getting the right answer because what I'm...- ConfusedStudentx10E9

So confused by these multi-step questions, free fall related:
Would you still be able to go over this particular example, even just the steps and equations used? Obviously, I'm backtracking with the tutor to try and understand everything but I have the first quiz on Monday, while I don't expect to do well I can at least hope to get partial marks for being...- ConfusedStudentx10E9

Honestly no, this is a first-year college course I'm taking and I haven't taken high school physics in over 8 years so I do not remember anything. this is chapter 2 of this course, the first chapter was just terminology, sig figs, and vectors. I'm totally lost and don't even know where to start...- ConfusedStudentx10E9

So confused by these multi-step questions, free fall related:
i could calculate the velocity at the time given, but that's not helpful. I could calculate its distance on the x-axis at the given time? I'm honestly not sure.- ConfusedStudentx10E9

So confused by these multi-step questions, free fall related:
Tried making many squiggles, I don't understand the concept of finding a distance or position based on a time for part of the flight. I have 2 other similar questions and I haven't been able to make any progress on any of them. I attached a photo of my scribbles, which are all obviously...- ConfusedStudentx10E9
