1. In an experiment, a shearwater (seabird) was taken from its nest, flown 5150 km away, andreleased. It found its way back to its nest 13.5 days after release. If we place the origin in thenest and extend the +x-axis to the release point, what was the bird’s average velocity in m/s(a) For the return flight?(b) For the whole episode, from leaving the nest to returning?

The constant speed of the horse is 10.0 m/s, and the man is initially 3.00 m above the level of the saddle. (a) What must be the horizontal distance between the saddle and the limb when the man makes his move? (b) How long is he in the air?
A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up vertically with an initial velocity of 11.0 m/s. How long does he have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.20 m, and he is 1.80 m tall?
A skier leaves the end of a horizontal ski jump at 22.0 m/s and falls through a vertical distance of 3.20 m before landing. Neglecting air resistance, (a) how long does it take the skier to reach the ground? (b) How far horizontally docs the skier travel in the air before landing? (Sec Section 3.4.)
A projectile is launched from the point (x = 0, y = 0), with velocity (12.0i19.0j)m/s2, at t = 0. (a) Make a table listing the projectiles distance r from the origin at the end of each second thereafter, for 0 t 10 s. Tabulating the x and y coordinates and the components of velocity vx and vy will also be useful. (b) Notice that the projectiles distance from its starting point increases with time, goes through a maximum, and starts to decrease. Prove that the distance is a maximum when the position vector is perpendicular to the velocity. Suggestion: Argue that if v is not perpendicular to r, then r must lie increasing or decreasing. (c) Determine the magnitude of the maximum displacement. (d) Explain your method for solving part (c).

(a) If the ball is thrown at an angle of 25° relative to the ground and is caught at the same height as it is released, what is its initial speed relative to the ground? (b) How long does it take to get to the receiver? (c) What is its maximum height above its point of release?
