1. Your friend is an environmentalist who is living in a tree for the summer. You are helping provide her with food, and you do so by throwing small packages up to her tree house. If her tree house is 30 m above the ground, what is the minimum (initial) speed you must use when throwing packages up to her?

2. You are standing across the street from a tall building when the top of the building (h = 80 m) is hit by lightning and a brick is knocked loose. You see the lightning strike and immediately see that the brick will fall to hit a person standing at the base of the building. You then run toward the person and push him out of the path of the brick, the instant before the brick reaches him. If you are initially 25 m from the building, how fast do you have to run?
