I think your talking about refraction and if so the first medium it existed in before entering the second usually has the higher speed especially it the first medium is less denser than the second

Two identical stones are thrown from the top of a tall building. Stone 1 is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed v,
Molodets [167]

If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by

v= \frac{1}{2}gt

Where

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = time

As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.

Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.

A boy jumps from rest, straight down from the top of a cliff. He falls halfway down to the water below in 0.866 s. How much time
Iteru [2.4K]
<h2>Entire trip takes 1.22 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = 0.866 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 0.866 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 0.866²

                      s = 3.68 m

      Halfway is 3.68 m

Total height = 2 x 3.68 = 7.36 m

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Time, t = ?

        Displacement, s  = 7.36 m

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      7.36 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

                      t = 1.22 s

Entire trip takes 1.22 seconds.

A 4kg rock isn’t rolling 10m/s. Find it’s kinetic energy.
scoundrel [369]

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

The rock's kinetic energy is not 

                           (1/2) (4 kg) (10 m/s)²

                      =   (1/2) (4 kg) (100 m²/s²)

                      =         200 Joules .

It may be more, or it may be less.  The only thing
we can be sure of is that it is not 200 Joules.
