A bullet is fired through a wooden board with a thickness of 8.0 cm. The bullet hits the board perpendicular to it, and with a speed of +350 m per s. The bullet then emerges on the other side of the board with a speed of +210 m per s. Assuming constant acceleration (rather, deceleration!) of the bullet while inside the wooden board, calculate the acceleration.

An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 19000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 4.23 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2.
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 29000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 4.77 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2. 520 g s 260 g s 5,098 g s 2,549 g s
A spacecraft starts from rest, and makes a journey to a destination 447000 km from its starting point. It does so by accelerating at a constant rate of 9.82 m/s^2 up to the midpoint of the journey, and then decelerates at the same constant rate of 9.82 m/s^2 for the second half of the journey, ending at rest. How long did the entire journey take?
On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 567 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 4.80 m/s2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.52 m/s2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 3751 m/s and vy = 4834 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the initial velocity.
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.
Most important in an investigation of an airplane crash by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is the data stored on the airplane’s flight-data recorder, commonly called the “black box” in spite of its orange coloring and reflective tape.The recorder is engineered to withstand a crash with an average deceleration of magnitude 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 ms. In such a crash, if the recorder and airplane have zero speed at the end of that time interval, what is their speed at the beginning of the interval?
A spaceship is traveling at a constant velocity of v(t) = 300.0i m/s when its rockets fire, giving it an acceleration of a(t) = (9.0i + 9.0k) m/s^2. What is its velocity (in m/s) 4 s after the rockets fire? (Express your answer in vector form.)
On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 389 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 3.41 m/s^2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.34 m/s^2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 1860 m/s and vy = 4290 m/s. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the initial velocity. Express the direction as an angle with respect to the +x axis.
At an air show, a jet plane has velocity components vx= 695km/h and v y =415km/h at time 4.35 s and v x =938km/h and V y =365km/h at time 7.52s.

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
The sport with the fastest moving ball is jai alai, where measured speeds have reached 303 km/h. If a professional jai alai player faces a ball at that speed and involuntarily blinks, he blacks out the scene for 100 ms. How far does the ball move during the blackout?
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.
