The velocity of an object is equal to the distance divided by time. the equation is velocity = distance/time. if you wanted to calculate the time required for an object to travel a distance and you knew the velocity, you would a) multiply: velocity x distance. b) subtract: velocity – distance. c) divide: distance ÷ velocity d) add: velocity + distance

22. the top of a cliff is located a distance h above the ground. at a distance h/2 there is a branch that juts out from the side of the cliff, and on this branch a bird's nest is located. two children throw stones at the nest with the same initial speed, one stone straight downward from the top of the cliff and the other stone straight upward from the ground. in the absence of air resistance, which stone hits the nest in the least amount of time?
