ACTIVITY #2 1. A car travels in the +x direction on a straight and level road. For the first 4 seconds of its motion, the average velocity is 6.25 m/s. How far does the car travel in 4 seconds? 2. Starting from a pillar you run 200 m east at an average speed of 5 m/s and then run 280 m west at an average of 4 m/s to a post. Calculate a. your average speed from pillar to post and b. your average velocity from pillar to post

You are on the roof of a Physics Building, 47 m above the ground. Your physics professor, who is 1.61 m tall, is approaching the building at constant speed of 1.61 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on his head, how far should your professor be when you release the egg?
Route 11 passes through the Pavón high school with a constant speed of 60 km / h. At the same instant the route passes, a student leaves Domino's in the direction of high school with a constant velocity of 0.9 m / s. How far from high school will the student see the route pass? Note: The distance between the high school and Domino's is 0.8 miles. *
The first astronaut has landed on Mars. Conducting some physics experiments, she drops a hammer from rest from a height of 2.01 m and uses a stopwatch to measure that the hammer takes 1.04 s to hit the ground. A. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on Mars. B. She then throws the hammer straight up into the Martian sky. If she comes back to her hand in 4.20 s, with what speed did she throw it?
A baseball player throws a baseball straight up into the air, in the following way: Starting from a height of 1.0 m above the ground, he accelerates the ball vertically with 30. m/s2 for 0.25 s, then the ball leaves his hand and flies straight up in free fall. Let’s ignore the air resistance. Draw a carefully labeled sketch of the situation. Calculate the velocity of the ball as it leaves the player’s hand. How high does the ball go relative to its initial position (yo=1.0 m)? Shows all work please.
1b. A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 18.5 m/s. The cliff is h = 20.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach as shown in the figure. What are the components of the initial velocity? v0x = ____m/s v0y = ____m/s
An electron is moving in a straight line with a velocity of 4.0×1054.0×105 m/s. It enters a region 5.0 cm long where it undergoes an acceleration of 6.0×1012m/s26.0×1012m/s2 along the same straight line. (a) What is the electron’s velocity when it emerges from this region? b) How long does the electron take to cross the region? Thanks for the help. I think I am missing something small because I keep coming up with answers that don't make sense.
