In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one-way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and BL11t accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, how long did it take Burt to complete the course?
Unreasonable Results A commercial airplane has an air speed of 280 m/s due east and flies with a strong tailwind. It travels 3000 km in a direction 5° south of east in 1.50 h. (a) What was the velocity of the plane relative to the ground? (b) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the tailwind's velocity. (c) What is unreasonable about both of these velocities? (d) Which premise is unreasonable?
A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 30.0 min at 80.0 km/h, 12.0 min at 100 km/h, and 45.0 min at 40.0 km/h and spends 15.0 min eating lunch and buying gas. (a) Determine the average speed for the trip. (b) Determine the distance between the initial and final cities along the route.
(a) By taking the slope of the curve in Figure 2.60, verify that the velocity of the jet car is 115 m/sat t=20 S. (b) By taking the slope of the curve at any point in Figure 2.61, verify that the jet car's acceleration is 5.0 m/s2.
Two students are on a balcony a distance h above the street. One student throws a ball vertically downward at a speed vi, at the same time, the other student throws a ball vertically upward at the same speed. Answer the following symbolically in terms of vi, g, h. and t. (a) What is the time interval between when the first ball strikes the ground and the second ball strikes the ground? (b) Find the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground, (c) How far apart are the balls at a time t after they are thrown and before they strike the ground?
A glider on an air track carries a flag of length through a stationary photogate, which measures the time interval td during which the flag blocks a beam of infrared light passing across the photogate. The ratio vd = /td is the average velocity of the glider over this part of its motion. Suppose the glider moves with constant acceleration, (a) Is vd necessarily equal to the instantaneous velocity of the glider when it is halfway through the photogate in space? Explain. (b) Is vd equal to the instantaneous velocity of the glider when it is halfway through the photogate in time? Explain.
A ball is thrown straight up. It passes a 2.00-m-high window 7.50 m off the ground on its path up and takes 0.312 s to go past the window. What was the ball's initial velocity? Hint: First consider only the distance along the window, and solve for the ball's velocity at the bottom of the window. Next, consider only the distance from the ground to the bottom of the window, and solve for the initial velocity using the velocity at the bottom of the window as the final velocity.
In World War II, there were several reported cases of airmen who jumped from their flaming airplanes with no parachute to escape certain death. Some fell about 20,000 feet (6000 m), and some of them survived, with few life-threatening injuries. For these lucky pilots, the tree branches and snow drifts on the ground allowed their deceleration to be relatively small. If we assume that a pilot's speed upon impact was 123 mph (54 m/s), then what was his deceleration? Assume that the trees and snow stopped him over a distance of 3.0 m.
