Give an example in which velocity is zero yet acceleration is not.
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?
In a slap shot, a hockey player accelerates the puck from a velocity of 8.00 m/s to 40.0 m/s in the same direction. If this shot takes 3.33102 s, calculate the distance over which the puck accelerates.
A race car traveling northward on a straight, level track at a constant speed travels 0.750 km in 20.0 s. The return trip over the same track is made in 25.0 s. (a) What is the average velocity of the car in m/s for the first leg of the run? (b) What is the average velocity for the total trip?
Is it possible for speed to be constant while acceleration is not zero? Give an example of such a situation.
A well-thrown ball is caught in a well-padded mitt. If the deceleration of the ball is 2.10104 m/s2, and 1.85 ms (1ms=103s) elapses from the time the ball first touches the mitt until it stops, what was the initial velocity of the ball?
Assume that an intercontinental ballistic missile goes from rest to a suborbital speed of 6.50 km/s in 60.0 s (the actual speed and time are classified). What is its average acceleration in m/s2 and in multiples of g (9.80 m/s2)?
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.)
Two objects move with initial velocity 8.00 m/s, final velocity 16.0 m/s. and constant accelerations, (a) The first object has displacement 20.0 m. Find its acceleration. (b) The second object travels a total distance of 22.0 in. Find its acceleration.
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.
A motorboat starting from rest travels in a straight line on a lake. (a) If the boat achieves a speed of 8.0 m/s in 10 s, what is the boats average acceleration? (b) Then, in 5.0 more seconds, the boats speed is 12 m/s. What is the boats average acceleration for the total time?
A person lakes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 89.5 km/h, except, for a 22.0-min rest stop. If the persons average speed is 77.8 km/h, (a) how much time is spent on the trip and (b) how far does the person travel?
