5. In a 300-m race, runner A starts from rests and accelerates at 1.6m/s? for the first 30 m and then runs at a constant speed. Runner B starts from rests and accelerates at 2.0m/s? for the first 30m and then runs at a constant speed. Runner A begins running as soon as the race begins but B firsts takes a nap to rest up. What is the longest nap that B can take and still not to lose the race?

Suppose you throw a rock nearly straight up at a coconut in a palm tree, and the rock misses on the way up but hits the coconut on the way down. Neglecting air resistance, how does the speed of the rock when it hits the coconut on the way down compare with what it would have been if it had hit the coconut on the way up? Is it more likely to dislodge the coconut on the way up or down? Explain,
(a) Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2.35 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the cliff with an initial velocity of 8.00 m/s. (b) How long would it take to reach the ground if it is thrown straight down with the same speed?
A tennis player tosses a tennis ball straight up and then catches it after 2.00 s at the same height as the point of release. (a) What is the acceleration of the ball while it is in flight? (b) What, is the velocity of the ball when it reaches its maximum height? Find (c) the initial velocity of the ball and (d) the maximum height it reaches.
The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with acceleration of −5.30 m/s2 for 4.15 s, making straight skid marks 62.6 m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed (in m/s) does the car then strike the tree? What If? If the car has the same initial velocity, and if the driver slams on the brakes at the same distance from the tree, then what would the acceleration need to be (in m/s2) so that the car narrowly avoids a collision? m/s2
A swan on a lake becomes airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. If the swan must reach a velocity of 5.75 m/s to take off and it accelerates from rest at an average rate of 0.350 m/s 2, what distance Δ? does it travel before becoming airborne? Δ?= How much time ? does it take for the swan to become airborne? t=
]=An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 55.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.20 m/s. (a) How long after release of the first stone do the two stones hit the water? s (b) What initial velocity must the second stone have if the two stones are to hit the water simultaneously? magnitude m/s direction (c) What is the speed of each stone at the instant the two stones hit the water? first stone m/s second stone m/s
Consider two cars, a 700kg Porsche and a 600kg Honda Civic. The Porsche is speeding along at 40 m/s (mph) and the Civic is going half the speed at 20 m/s. If the two cars brake to a stop with the same constant acceleration, are either the amount of time required to come to a stop, or the distance traveled prior to stopping influenced by their initial velocity?
you are driving your car along a country road ar a speed of 23.8m/s. As you come over the crest of a hill, you notice a farm tractor 25.0 m ahead of you on the road, moving in the same direction as you at a speed of 10.0 m/s. You immediately slam on your brakes and slow down with a constant acceleration of magnitude 8.60 m/s^2. how far is the tractor in front of you when you finally stop?
A sprinter is running at a speed of 10.0 m/s, then accelerates at a constant rat e of 2.86 m/s2 for the last 8.50 m of the race. What is his final speed as he crosses the finish line?How long did it take him to run the last 8.50 m of the race?
Two boats start together and race across a 42-km-wide lake and back. Boat A goes across at 42 km/h and returns at 42 km/h. Boat B goes across at 21 km/h, and its crew, realizing how far behind it is getting, returns at 63 km/h. Turnaround times are negligible, and the boat that completes the round trip first wins.Which boat wins? (Or is it a tie?) By how much? What is the average velocity of the winning boat?
You throw a baseball directly upward at time t=0 at an initial speed of 12.1 m/s. What is the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand? Ignore air resistance and take g=9.80 m/s2 At what times does the ball pass through half the maximum height?
Smoky, the cat, is relaxing on the arm of a couch, 1m above the ground, when he is startled by something and jumps straight up in the air with an initial speed of 4 m/s. Coming down he missed the couch and lands on the ground. ( ignore air resistance) time to reach max height is .408 s max height is 1.816 m What is smoky's velocity just before he hits the ground? How long is Smoky in the air?
