In a baseball game the initial speed of a ball was measured to be 43 m/s. The batter hits and send the ball in the opposite direction with a speed of 51 m/s. Assuming the flight trajectories are horizontal and linear; and the bat-ball contact time is 1.0 ms, find the average acceleration of the ball.
Which of the following is INCORRECT about projectile motion with the same initial and final elevations? a. The total time of flight is twice the time to reach the maximum height. b. The magnitude of the acceleration at the maximum height is 9.8 m/s2. c. At its maximum height, the velocity of the projectile is zero. d. Only the vertical component of the motion is accelerating.
The acceleration of a particle is given by ax(t)=−2.00m/s2+(3.00m/s3)t. Find the initial velocity v0x such that the particle will have the same x-coordinate at time t = 4.93 s as it had at t=0.
When a ball was allowed to fall from rest from height h, a second ball was thrown up from the ground in the vertical direction. For two balls to meet at height h / 2, what should be the initial velocity of the second ball?
In projectile motion, the total flight time is _______. A) equal to the time required to reach the maximum height B) thrice the time required to reach the maximum height C) four times the time required to reach the maximum height D) twice the time required to reach the maximum height
One object is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 100 m/s and another object with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. The maximum height reached by the first object will be _______ that of the other.
A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose sailboat has capsized. One of the rescuers tosses a life preserver straight down to the person with an initial speed of 1.25 m/s and observes that it takes 1.75 s to reach the water. How high above the water was the preserver released? Note that the downdraft of the helicopter reduces the effect of air resistance on the falling life preserver, so that an acceleration equal to that due to gravity is reasonable.
A particle moves down a horizontal route that begins 5 feet to the right of a specific point P with an initial velocity of 4 feet per second. Another particle is going along the same route, beginning 3 feet to the left of P with an initial velocity of 8 feet per second. Consider that the accelerations of the two particles are a1(t) = 2t 3 and a2(t) = 2t 5, respectively. Will the particles collide? Justify your response
A particle starts from rest at a position x(0) = 0. Find the velocity v(t) and position y(t) of the particle if it is subjected to the following accelerations: a) a(t) = 6t3-4t2+7t-8 b) a(t) = 5e-5t +1/4 cos(1/4)t
During the time interval 0 < t < 1, the velocity of an object as a function of time is v = 5 + 3t^2 + 2t^3. Knowing that the object follows a rectilinear trajectory, What is the correct expression for the acceleration?
A baseball is hit at a height h = 1.00 m and caught at the same height. It travels along side a wall moving up past the top of the wall 1.00 s after it is hit and then down past the top of the wall 4.00 s later at distance D = 62 m further along the wall. Use g = 9.8 m/s/s. What is the magnitude of the initial velocity?
