#2) My squirrels, named Half-tail and Eddy, sit on the different tree branches. Half-tail dropped an acorn, starting from rest, from a height of 1.8m to the ground. Eddy throws an acorn straight downward from a height of 3.5m to the ground. Two acorns reach the ground at the same time. Air resistance is negligible. Set the downward direction as positive. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration is 9.8ms2.
(A) What is the initial velocity of acorn, which was thrown by Eddy?
(B) What is the velocity of the acorn, which was thrown by Eddy, when it reaches the ground?
(C) What is the velocity of the acorn, which was dropped by Half-tail, when it reaches the ground?
 #2) My squirrels, named Half-tail and Eddy, sit on the different
