    Calculate Time Difference: Tim vs. Rick Running and Walking

    Tim and Rick both can run at speed v_r and walk at speed v_w, with v_r greater than v_w. They set off together on a journey of distance D. Rick walks half of the distance and runs the other half. Tim walks half of the time and runs the other half. the time it takes tim to cover the distance...

    Finding the maximum height of a rocket

    A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant net acceleration a, until time t_1, when the fuel is exhausted. Find the maximum height H that the rocket reaches (neglecting air resistance). Express the maximum height in terms of a, t_1, and/or...
