Do highway speed limit signs refer to average speeds or to instantaneous speeds? Explain.
Traumatic brain injury such as concussion results when the head undergoes a very large acceleration. Generally, an acceleration less than 800 m/s2 lasting for any length of time will not cause injury, whereas an acceleration greater than 1 000 m/s2 lasting tor at least 1 ms will cause injury. Suppose; a small child rolls off a bed that is 0.40 m above the floor. If the floor is hardwood, the childs head is brought to rest in approximately 2.0 min. If the floor is carpeted, this stopping distance is increased to about 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude and duration of the deceleration. In both cases, to determine the risk of injury. Assume the child remains horizontal during the fall to the floor. Note that a more complicated fall could result in a head velocity greater or less than the speed you calculate.
If an object is thrown straight up and air resistance is negligible, then its speed when it returns to the starting point is the same as when it was released. If air resistance were not negligible, how would its speed upon return compare with its initial speed? How would the maximum height to which it rises be affected?
A pebble is dropped from rest from the top of a tall cliff and falls 4.9 m after 1.0 s has elapsed. How much farther does it drop in the next 2.0 s? (a) 9.8 m (b) 19.6 m (c) 39 m (d) 44 m (e) none of the above
The average person passes out at an acceleration of 7g (that is, seven times the gravitational acceleration on Earth). Suppose a car is designed to accelerate at this rate. How much time would be required for the car to accelerate from rest, to 60.0 miles per hour? (The car would need rocket boosters!)
Compare the time in the air of a basketball player who jumps 1.0 m vertically off the floor with that of a player who jumps 0.3 m vertically.
The average person passes out at an acceleration of 7g (that is, seven times the gravitational acceleration on Earth). Suppose a car is designed to accelerate at this rate. How much time would be required for the car to accelerate from rest to 60.0 miles per hour? (The car would need rocket boosters!)
A stone is dropped from a captive balloon at an elevation of 1000 ft (304.8 m). Two seconds later another stone is thrown vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 248 ft/s (75.6 m/s). If g = 32 ft/s2 (9.75 m/s2), when and where the stones pass each other?
The average person passes out at an acceleration of 7g (that is, seven times the gravitational acceleration on Earth). Suppose a car is designed to accelerate at this rate. How much time (in seconds) would be required for the car to accelerate from rest to 59.9 miles per hour? (The car would need rocket boosters!)
A spaceship hovering over the surface of Venus drops an object from a height of 53 m. How much longer does it take to reach the surface than if dropped from the same height on Earth? Neglect air resistance. [The acceleration due to gravity on Venus is 90.7% of that Earth, gvenus = (0.907)g.]
A stone dropped from a captive balloon at an elevation of 1000 ft. Two seconds later another stone is projected vertically upward from the ground with the velocity of 248 ft/s. If g is 32 ft/s2, when will the two stones pass each other?
A light plane must reach a speed of 32 m/sm/s for takeoff. How long a runway is needed if the (constant) acceleration is 2.7 m/s2m/s2 ? Express your answer using two significant figures.
