INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT OPEN THIS TEST UNTIL YOU ARE TOLD TO BEGIN
Show all your work. Partial credit will be given.
Start each question on a new sheet of paper. Be sure to put your name in the upper right-hand corner of each page, along with the question number and the page number/total pages for this problem. For example,
Doe, Jamie
Q1 – 1/3
A hand-held calculator may be used. Its memory must be cleared of data and programs. You may use only the basic functions found on a simple scientific calculator. Calculators may not be shared. You may not use any tables, books, or collections of formulas.
Each of the four questions is worth 25 points. The questions are not necessarily of the same difficulty.
Good luck!

Solutions to Problems
Unless explicitly told to use a specific method, any correct solution should be awarded equivalent points. Suggested partial-credit points are presented in square brackets at the right margin. You may further break down the listed points into one point increments. If it is clear they have done an intermediate step, they should get credit for it even if they have not presented it. For example, in 2.a., if a student wrote down , they should get 8 points credit. Students should not be penalized in a subsequent part for using the wrong answer to a previous part. (No double jeopardy.)
Условие
Suppose that Galileo is in the Leaning Tower of Pisa. He throws a cannonball straight down from height above the ground. The ball leaves his hands with an initial speed . At the same instant, his friend throws a cannonball straight up from ground level with an initial speed of . When the cannonballs collide, they are traveling in the same direction and Galileo's cannonball is traveling with 7 times the speed of his friend's. Ignore air resistance.
a. At what time does the collision occur? Express your answer in terms of and only. [10 т.]
b. At what height above the ground does the collision occur? Express your answer in terms of only. [15 т.]

2. a. Selecting down to be negative and the ground to be the zero of position, the position of Galileo’s cannonball is
[3]
The position of his friend’s cannonball is
[3]
The cannonballs collide when they are at the same position at the same time. Setting the equations equal

b. The velocities at the time of collision are:
for Galileo’s cannonball
[3]
and for the friend’s cannonball
[3]
The velocities are related

[2]
There are many ways of combining equations (2-3) and (2-4) with either (2-1) or (2-2) to get in terms of only . One of the shortest is to multiply (2-4) by and use (2-3) to simplify.

Subbing into equation (2-2), the collision occurs at
