Figure OQ4.1 shows a bird's-eye view of a car going around a highway curve. As the car moves from point 1 to point 2, its speed doubles. Which of the vectors (a) through (e) shows the direction of the cars average acceleration between these two points?
Jonah is reading a novel that describes an athlete participating in an archery competition. The athlete is 186 cm tall and hits an amazing shot where they fire the arrow completely horizontally and it lands 51 m away from them. 1) neglecting air resistance and drag, what must the initial speed of the arrow be? 2) if the arrow was instead fired at an angle of 45°, how far would it have travelled if it was launched at 187m/s?
1. A diver running 265 cm/s dives out horizontally from the edge of a vertical cliff and 3.0 s later reaches the water below. How high was the cliff and how far from its base did the diver hit the water? Express your answer in meters. 2. A grasshopper hops along a level road. On each hop, the grasshopper launches itself at angle 45° and achieves a range R = 95 cm. What is the average horizontal speed (in m/s) of the grasshopper as it hops along the road?

A child in Yellowstone National Park kicked a rock off a bridge down into a river below. The bridge had a height of 405 meters above the river. If the child kicked the rock with an initial velocity of 2.1 m/s, What was the amount of time required for the rock to hit the river below? How far horizontally from the bridge did the rock travel?
You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizontal range. You shoot the gun straight up, and it takes 3.6 ss for the dart to land back at the barrel.

How long will ittake the conductor to reach the back of the train? 2.A ball is thrown on level ground at an angle of 25.0 degrees above the horizontal with an initial velocityof 18.0m/s. What is the range of the throw?
the leprechaun in the shamrock patch was named O'Malley and since he was disrupted from sitting in his patch he decided to go off and play a round of his favorite sport in where leprechaun kick a gold coin from a tee into a post 317m away. if he kicked the coin at an angle of 60 degree at a velocity of 60 m/s how high was the arch of the rainbow created by the trajectory? how long did it take to get to the pot? the officials in dublin decided to add a goal post to "kick O coin" 300 meters away and so many 33 meters high. would O'Malley's kick have cleared this goal post?
One of the fastest recorded pitches in major league baseball, thrown by Tim Lincecum in 2009, was clocked at 101.0 mi/h (Fig. P3.8). If a pitch were thrown horizontally with this velocity, how far would the ball fall vertically by the time it reached home plate, 60.5 ft away? Figure P3.8 Tim Lincecum throws a baseball.

A rocket is launched at an angle of 53.0 above the horizontal with an initial speed of 100. m/s. The rocket moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 30.0 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a projectile. Find (a) the maximum altitude reached by the rocket, (b) its total time of flight, and (c) its horizontal range.
A ball rolls in a straight line along the horizontal direction. Using motion diagrams (or multi flash photo-graphs), describe the velocity and acceleration of the ball for each of the following situations: (a) The ball moves to the right at a constant speed, (b) The ball moves from right to left and continually slows down, (c) The ball moves from right to left and continually speeds up. (d) The ball moves to the right, first speeding up at a constant rate and then slowing down at a constant rate.
