A rubber ducky is traveling around a drain pipe, slowly being pulled into the center of the circular motion of the water. It originally is 2.31m from the center of the drain traveling with a linear velocity of 1.95m/s but only a short time later, is it only 0.64m from the center. With what linear velocity is it traveling at that point?

A particle is in uniform circular motion about the origin of an xy coordinate system, moving clockwise with a period of 8.40 s. At one instant, its position vector (from the origin) is r→=(3.70m)î-(4.50m)ĵ. At that instant, what is its velocity in unit-vector notation?
An object rolls off a tabletop with a horizontal velocity v0x = 18 m/s. The table is at a height y0 = 1.2 m, above the floor. Use a coordinate system with its origin on the floor directly beneath the point where the object rolls off the table, its horizontal x-axis lying directly beneath the object’s trajectory, and its vertical y-axis pointing up. What is the magnitude of the velocity (its speed) when it hits the floor?
A particle is in uniform circular motion about the origin of an xy coordinate system, moving clockwise with a period of 7.00 s. At one instant, its position vector (measured from the origin) is r: = (2.00 m)iˆ - (3.00 m). At that instant, what is its velocity in unit-vector notation?
An ice skater is executing a figure-eight, consisting of two identically shaped, tangent circular paths. Throughout the first loop, she increases her speed uniformly, and during the second loop she moves at a constant speed. When the ice skater travels during the first loop, the acceleration vector is not directed towards the center, whereas when the ice skater travels in the second loop, the acceleration vector is directed toward the center. Is this true or false?
The aorta is a major artery, rising upward from the left ventricle of the heart and curving down to carry blood to the abdomen and lower half of the body. The curved artery can be approximated as a semicircular arch whose diameter is 5.3 cm. If blood flows through the aortic arch at a speed of 0.40 m/s, what is the magnitude (in m/s2) of the blood's centripetal acceleration?
