You are exploring a planet and drop a small rock from the edge of a cliff. In coordinates where the +y direction is downward and neglecting air resistance, the vertical displacement of an object released from rest is given by y − y0 = 1/2gplanett2, where gplanet is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet. You measure t in seconds for several values of y − y0 in meters and plot your data with t2 on the vertical axis and y − y0 on the horizontal axis. Your data is fit closely by a straight line that has slope 0.300 s2/m. Based on your data, what is the value of gplanet?
You encounter a moving walkway that is 81 m long and has a speed of 2.1 m/s relative to the ground. How long would it take you to cover the 81 m length of the walkway if, once you get on the walkway, you immediately turn around and start walking in the opposite direction with a speed of 1.6 m/s relative to the walkway? Express your answer using one significant figure.
A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of 5.30 m/s. At a height of 107 m above the Earth, a package is dropped from the helicopter. How much time does it take for the package to reach the ground? [Hint: What is v0 for the package?] Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. My Answer is that t= 4.163 but what unit is it? I tried s, m/s, min but none of them were correct. PLEASE HELP CONFIRM MY ANSWER and THE UNIT along with 4.163
A jeep travels a distance d=22.1m in the positive x direction in a time t1=20.2s, at which point the jeep brakes, coming to rest in t2=7.38s. 1. What was the jeep's instantaneous velocity in the horizontal direction, in meters per second, when it began braking? 2. Using the result from question 1, what was the jeep's horizontal component of acceleration, in meters per squared second, during the braking period?
A student solving a physics problem for the velocity of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression v=d/t−v0, where d=35.0meter, t=9.00second, and v0 =3.00meter/second. What is the velocity v?
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 42000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 2.07 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. 39,207 g s 19,604 g s 3,997 g s 1,998 g s
A woman stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 21.5 m/s. The stone leaves her hand at a height of h = 57.0 m above level ground at the bottom of the cliff, as shown in the figure. Note the coordinate system in the figure, where the origin is at the bottom of the cliff, directly below where the stone leaves the hand. Write the equations for the position of the stone with time, using the coordinates in the figure. Use the following as necessary: t. Assume that x and y are in meters and t is in seconds.

A toy frog is initially at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system. Upon leaping, its position after a second is given by P = (5.0 cm)i + (70 cm)) + (3.0 cm) k What is the distance (in centimeter) traveled by the toy frog assuming straight-line motion?
If a spaceship traveling through deep space with the velocity vector as a function of time: v = (2t i +4t j+ 6t k) m/s. (time is in seconds). Given the initial position of the spaceship is r0= (20 i− 50 j − 100 k ) m. At what time would the spaceship be the closest to the origin? and What would the acceleration of the spaceship be at this instant? If you can express the acceleration in Cartesian vector form. Also ? is the unit vector in the z-direction.
