A hovercraft has an initial position of ⃗r(t = 0s) = 235m @ 265◦, an initial velocity of⃗v(t = 0s) = 125m/s @ 14◦, and a constant acceleration of ⃗a = 21.3m/s2 @ 143◦ How long does it take for the x coordinate of the hovercraft’s position to reach -100m What is the hovercraft’s speed at this time? What is the hovercraft’s acceleration at this time?
An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 51.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.06 m/s. (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have if the two stones are to hit the water simultaneously?
Daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 55º ramp leaning on the leftmost bus, revving at a speed of 32.15m/s. How long would the stunt last? How many buses can he clear if the top of the takeoff ramp is at the same height as the bus, 3 m, and the buses are 8.78 m long?
In the 1991 World Track and Field Championships in Tokyo, Mike Powell jumped 8.95 m, breaking by a full 5 cm the 23-year long-jump record set by Bob Beamon. Assume that Powell’s speed on takeoff was 9.5 m/s (about equal to that of a sprinter) and that g 9.80 m/s2 in Tokyo. How much less was Powell’s range than the maximum possible range for a particle launched at the same speed?
Give an example in which velocity is zero yet acceleration is not.
Professional baseball player Nolan Ryan could pitch a baseball at approximately 160.0 km/h. At that average velocity, how long did it take a ball thrown by Ryan to reach home plate, which is 18.4 m from the pitcher’s mound? Compare this with the average reaction time of a human to a visual stimulus, which is 0.25 s.
Calculate the displacement and velocity at times of (a) 0.500 s, (b) 1.00 s, (c) 1.50 s. (d) 2.00 s, and (e) 2.50 s for a rock thro straight down with an initial velocity of 14.0 m/s from the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in New York City. The roadway of this bridge is 70.0 m above the water.
A race car entering the curved part of the track at the Daytona 500 drops its speed from 85.0 m/s to 80.0 m/ s in 2.0 s. If the radius of the curved part of the track is 316.0 m, calculate the total acceleration of the race car at the beginning and ending of reduction of speed.
A daring ranch hand sitting on a tree limb wishes to drop vertically onto a horse galloping under the tree. The constant speed of the horse is 10.0 m/s, and the distance from the limb to the level of the saddle is 3.00 m. (a) What must be the horizontal distance between the saddle and limb when the ranch hand makes his move? (b) For what time interval is he in the air?
A World War II bomber flies horizontally over level terrain with a speed of 275 m/s relative to the ground and at an altitude of 3.00 km The bombardier releases one bomb. (a) How far does the bomb travel horizontally between it release and its impact on the ground? Ignore the effects of air resistance. (b) The pilot maintains the planes original course, altitude, and speed through a storm of flak. Where is the plane when the bomb hits the ground? (c) The bomb hits the target seen in the telescopic bombsight at the moment of the bombs release. At what angle from tin- vertical was the bombsight set?
A coin is dropped from a hot-air balloon that is 300 m above the ground and rising at 10.0 m/s upward. For the coin, find (a) the maximum height reached, (b) its position and velocity 4.00 s after being released, and (c) the time before it hits the ground.
An arrow is shot straight up in the air at an initial speed of 15.0 m/s. After how much time is the arrow heading downward at a speed of 8.00 m/s? (See Section 2.6.)
