You're playing a cartoony racing video game, with a character on a motorcycle. You drive your character off a ledge at 15 m/s. The next ledge for the character's bike to land on is 25 m away (horizontally) and 12 m below. Assume the video game has realistic physics coded into it, except that acceleration due to gravity is only 8.0 m/s^2. a) will your character land on the next platform? b) whether they land or not, find their velocity (magnitude and direction) as they either land on or pass through the 12 m below position.
If a spaceship traveling through deep space with the velocity vector as a function of time: v = (2t i +4t j+ 6t k) m/s. (time is in seconds). Given the initial position of the spaceship is r0= (20 i− 50 j − 100 k ) m. At what time would the spaceship be the closest to the origin? and What would the acceleration of the spaceship be at this instant? If you can express the acceleration in Cartesian vector form. Also ? is the unit vector in the z-direction.

A military helicopter on a training mission is flying horizontally at a speed of 90.0 m/sm/s when it accidentally drops a bomb (fortunately, not armed) at an elevation of 360 mm . You can ignore air resistance. Please answer D and E A) How much time is required for the bomb to reach the earth? 8.5715 s B) How far does it travel horizontally while falling? 771.43 m. C)Find the horizontal component of the bomb's velocity just before it strikes the earth. 90 m/s. D)Find the vertical component of the bomb's velocity just before it strikes the earth. E)If the velocity of the helicopter remains constant, where is the helicopter when the bomb hits the ground?
A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck, North Dakota --- a distance of 180 miles. Because he is flying into a headwind, the trip takes him 2 hours. On the way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1 hour and 30 minutes. What is the plane's speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing?A. his plane speed equals mph.? B. the wind speed equals mph.?
A frictionless toy car is placed on a ramp, which is inclined at an unknown angle ? with respect to the horizontal. Starting from rest, the car is allowed to roll freely down the ramp.

Express the speed of the car at time ? and the angle ? in terms of the given variables and ?, the acceleration due to gravity. Your answers may or may not include all of the given variables.
The NEXT morning, you wake up in a strange room yet again, and this time you drop a ball from a height of 1.54 m above the floor. The ball hits the floor 0.392 s after your drop it.
