Reference no: EM13669610

While standing on a bridge 15.0 m above the ground, you drop a stone from rest. When the stone has fallen 3.20 m, you throw a second stone straight down. Which initial velocity should you give the second stone if they are both to reach the ground at the same instant? Take the downward direction to be the negative direction.
