A clown juggle balls while doing other activities. In one act, she throws a ball vertically upward, and while it is in the air, she runs to and from a table 5.5 m away at constant speed of 2.5 m/s, returning just in time to catch the falling ball. With what minimum initial speed must she throw the ball upward to accomplish the act?

We investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver,the jet comes in for a landing on solid ground with a speed of 95 m/s, and itsacceleration can have a maximum magnitude of 6.37 m/s2 as it comes to rest.(a) From the instant the jet touches the runway, what is the minimum time intervalneeded before it can come to rest?(b) Can this jet land on a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 kmlong? Show your work using a calculation.

A steel wire connects two trains at rest on the same track. The wire will snapif it is stretched by as much as 1 percent. The trains begin to accelerate in such away that their velocities, as measured in the ground frame, are always equal.Eventually, the wire snaps. Explain carefully why this happens. How fast are thetrains moving when the wire snaps?
A stunt man drives a car at speed v = 20 m/s off a H=30 m high cliff. The road leading to the cliff is inclined upward at an angle theta = 10 degrees.
