A hard rubber ball, not affected by air resistance in its motion, is tossed upward from shoulder height, falls to the sidewalk, rebounds to a smaller maximum height, and is caught on its way down again. This motion is represented in Figure OQ2.13, where the successive positions of the ball through are not equally spaced in time. At point the center of the ball is at its lowest point in the motion. The motion of the ball is along a straight, vertical line, but the diagram shows successive positions offset to the right to avoid overlapping. Choose the positive y direction to be upward. (a) Rank the situations through according to the speed of the ball |vy| at each point, with the largest speed first. (b) Rank the same situations according to the acceleration ay of the ball at each point. (In both rankings, remember that zero is greater than a negative value. If two values are equal, show that they are equal in your ranking.) Figure OQ2.13

Panicking, he accelerates for “t” seconds at 0.2 m/seconds^2 and finishes the race at his new faster speed. He makes it just in time. How long did he accelerate for?

Alice is riding a bike at 12 mph, but decides to sprint. She takes 0.7 s to accelerate to 19 mph. At constant acceleration, calculate her acceleration, a/(ft/s2). (Here are possibly convenient conversion aids: 60 mph = 1 mi/min = 88 ft/s. This equation is exact. You may wish to verify the equation. One mile = 60*88 ft, and one hour = 60*60 s.)

Upon arriving there 15 minutes (0.25 h) after he left home, he suddenly realizes he forgot his grocery list. He immediately turns around and heads back towards home. After travelling 6.8 miles due west in 12 minutes (0.20 h), the car runs out of gas. What is his average speed during the not-quite-completed trip?
