In the blizzard of ’88, a rancher was forced to drop hay bales from an airplane to feed her cattle. The plane flew horizontally at 160 km/hr and dropped the bales from a height of 80 m above the flat range, (a) She wanted the bales of hay to land 30 m behind the cattle so as to not hit them. Where should she push the bales out of the airplane? (b) To not hit the cattle, what is the largest time error she could make while pushing the bales out of the airplane? Ignore air resistance.
A spring cannon fires a marble at 45 ° up from horizontal going 2.0 m/s and starting 1.0 m above the floor. Assuming that the marble does not hit anything on its way to the floor, and ignoring air drag, which of the following is true of the | vx | (magnitude of the horizontal velocity component) and | vy | (magnitude of the vertical velocity component) of the marble as it goes up (but has not yet reached its maximum height)? a) | vx | Decreasing & | vy | Decreasing b) | vx | Constant & | vy | Decreasing c) | vx | Decreasing & | vy | Constant d) | vx | Constant & | vy | Constant e) None of these.
The pilot of a jet transport brings the engines to full takeoff power before releasing the brakes as the aircraft is standing on the runway. The jet thrust remains constant, and the aircraft has a near-constant acceleration of 0.44g. If the takeoff speed is 150 km/h, calculate the distance s and time t from rest to takeoff. Ans: s = _____ m t = _____ s
A lunar lander is descending toward the moon’s surface.Until the lander reaches the surface, its height above the surface of themoon is given by y(t) = b - ct + dt2, where b = 800 m is the initialheight of the lander above the surface, c = 60.0 m/s, and d = 1.05 m/s2.(a) What is the initial velocity of the lander, at t = 0? (b) What is thevelocity of the lander just before it reaches the lunar surface?
The velocity of a parachutist as a function of time is given by v = vf + (v0 - vf)e-t/2.5, where t = 0 s corresponds to the instant the parachute is opened, v0 = 160 km/h is the velocity before opening of the parachute, and vf = 18 km/h is the final (terminal) velocity. What acceleration does the parachutist experience just after opening the parachute? (m/s^2)
Descending from rest at the last peak (height 20 m above the ground level) on a roller-coaster track, a car, of mass 750 kg, hits at the end of a horizontal stretch of shallow water, which exerts the average braking force of 920 N. How far does the car splash through the water before it stops?a. 210 m b. 160 m c. 130 m d. 90 m e. 50 m
In the standing Broadjump, one squats and then pushes off with the legs to see how far one can jump. Suppose the extension of the legs from the crouch position is 0.55 m and the acceleration achieved during the time the jumper is extending their legs is 1.2 time the acceleration due to gravity, g. How far can they jump in meters? Assume the person leaves at an angle of 45° and on level ground.
