After doing this problem, I found that I am very comfortable using the kinematic equation of vf = vi+at, when I use this equation I find that I always get the right answer for the problem, which is great, and I have no further questions to help me understand this
3. Explain whether, during a trip, a car’s instantaneous speed (movement of an object at a specific instant) can ever be greater than its average speed.
A net force of 5.0 N moves a 2.0-kg object a distance of 3.0 m in 3.0 s. How much work is done on the object?

How much force does a 40,000kg rocket develop toaccelerate 2m/s2 5. Block 1 is 12kg and block 2 is 23kg calculate
6. After knowing A=B maybe the force is equal from the bug and the windshield. That’s the case with Newton’s third law
(1.5 pts) Find Distance to Accelerate and Stop with a Single Engine Failure at V1 (ft).
The average distance was 1.27 meters (Data Table 1).The marble was also launched at an angle of 25 degrees and a height of 1.05 meters. The average distance was 1.46 meters (Data Table 2). The marble took .452 seconds to hit the ground (Figure 1). The marble had an average velocity of 2.82 m/s (Figure 2). A triangle was drawn with a magnitude of 2.82 m/s. The x and y components of the triangle were calculated.
In total the firefighter has two different forces that are acting upon it that are affecting his acceleration. His first force is his weight and the second force is the friction force of the poll. Newton’s first law states “Every object continues in a state of rest or of uniform speed in a straight line unless acted on by a nonzero force” (Hewitt, 52). In this problem the downwards force in a straight line is the fireman’s weight. The force of the friction is going to be equal to the accelerating force of gravity, zero net force.
