A runner taking part in the 200 m dash must run around the end of a track that has a circular arc with a radius of curvature of 50 m. If he completes the 200 m dash in 28.4 s and runs at constant speed throughout the race, what is the magnitude of his centripetal acceleration (in m/s2) as he runs the curved portion of the track? Answer in m/s2
A rock was thrown horizontally from a 100.0 m high cliff. It strikes the ground 90.0 m from the base of the cliff. a) At what speed was it thrown? b) How long did it take to hit the ground. c) Neglecting wind resistance, which component of velocity is affected by gravity VERTICAL or HORIZONTAL? d) Sketch the trajectory of the rock as it falls to the ground and include the velocity vector at the beginning, midway down, and just before striking the ground. e) After you determine the total time in the air, you can then determine the final vertical velocity vector combined with the horizontal velocity determined earlier. Use these vectors to determine the resultant velocity vector just before landing. Recall using Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the velocity vector and trigonometry for the angle below the horizontal that the resultant vector strikes at.
