A swan on a lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. a) If the swan must reach a velocity of 6.96 m/s to take off and it accelerates from rest at an average rate of 0.4 m/s², how far will it travel before becoming airborne?

person stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a pebble horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 15.0 m/s.The pebble leaves his hand at a height of h = 46.0 mabove level ground at tge bottom of the cliff. How long (in s) after being released does the pebble strike the ground below the cliff?. With what speed (in m/s) and angle of impact (in degrees clockwise from the +x-axis) does the pebble land?
A red train traveling at 72 km/h and a green train traveling at 144 km/h are headed toward each other along a straight, level track.When they are 950 m apart, each engineer sees the other’s train and applies the brakes.The brakes slow each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s2. Is there a collision? If so, answer yes and give the speed of the red train and the speed of the green train at impact, respectively. If not, answer no and give the separation between the trains when they stop
