A jetliner traveling north is landing with a speed of 74 m/s. Once the jet touches down, it has 755 m of runway which reduced its speed to 11.1 m/s. What is the average acceleration (magnitude & direction) of the jet during landing?
The catapult of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln accelerates an F/A-18 Hornet jet fighter from rest to takeoff speed of 173 mi/h in a distance of 307 ft. How much time does it take for the fighter to accelerate to takeoff speed?
A baseball is pitched, reaching the batter with a speed of 37 m/s, and is hit such that it returns on the same line at 48 m/s. If the ball was in contact with the bat for .22 seconds, what was the magnitude of the average acceleration experienced by the ball during the time of contact?
An atom is constrained to move along the horizontal axis only. At time t = 0.5 s, the atom is at x = 0.06 m. At time t = 2.8 s, the atom is at x = 0.46 m. What is the atom's average velocity?
A jetliner, travelling northward, is landing with a speed of 69 m/ s. Once the jet touches down, it has 750 m of runway in which to reduce its speed to 6.1 m/ s. Compute the average acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the plane during landing.
An object is initially moving in the x-direction at 2.9 m/s when it undergoes acceleration in the y-direction for a period of 14 s. If the object moves equal distances in the x- and y-directions during this time, what’s the magnitude of its acceleration?
In a baseball game the initial speed of a ball was measured to be 43 m/s. The batter hits and send the ball in the opposite direction with a speed of 51 m/s. Assuming the flight trajectories are horizontal and linear; and the bat-ball contact time is 1.0 ms, find the average acceleration of the ball.
A car is 126 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 29 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she must stop the car. If it takes 0.200 s for the driver to apply the brakes, what must be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the car after the brakes are applied so that the car will come to rest at the stop sign?
A body moving in the positive x-direction passes the origin at time t = 0. Between t = 0 and t = 1 second, the body has a constant speed of 14 (m/s). At t = 1 second, the body is given a constant acceleration of 5 (m/s2) in the negative x-direction. The position x of the body in meters at t = 9 seconds is
A particle leaves the origin with initial velocity v0= 12i + 14j m/s, undergoing constant acceleration a = -0.80i + 0.25j m/s2. If the particle crosses the y-axis at t = 30s and its y-coordinate at the time is 532.5m. How fast is it moving and in what direction is it moving?
The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with an acceleration of 5.60 m/s2 for 4.20 s, making straight skid marks 62.4 m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed does the car then strike the tree?
In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
