Kinematics problem -- Calculating where a dropped stone will hit a car
Hi , thank you for helping me. I am trying to show that the stone didn’t hit the woman‘s car by calculating when did the stone hit the ground x=0 and y=0 (free fall) ,and by using that time to see if the car was at x=0. ( I am really sorry my english is very limited)- physicslover12

Kinematics problem -- Calculating where a dropped stone will hit a car
0=6-4.9(t^2) 0=-27,7t+Xo From the first equation, T= 1.10s From the second equation, (Xo/27,7)=t 0=6-4.9((Xo/27,7)^2) We solve for Xo = 30,65 Now, we have X=-27,7t+30,65 If t=1,10 Then , -27,7(1,10)+30,65=0,18 which is not equal to 0. Which means the stone hits the ground first. Is my answer...- physicslover12
