A bullet in a gun is accelerated from rest from the firing chamber to the end of the barrel at an average rate of 6.25 × 105 m/s2 for 8.3 × 10-4 s. What is the gun’s muzzle velocity (that is, the bullet’s final speed), in meters per second?
You’re driving in your car at 60 mph when Bambi steps out right in front of you and freezes. You slam on the brakes decelerating at a rate of 0.5 g (-4.9 M/S). How far and how long will it take for the car to come to a stop?
Dr. John Paul Stapp was a U.S. Air Force officer who studied the effects of extreme acceleration on the human body. On December 10, 1954, Stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282 m/s (1015 km/h) in 5.00 s and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1.40 s. Calculate his (a) acceleration in his direction of motion and (b) acceleration opposite to his direction of motion. Express each in multiples of g (9.80 m/s2) by taking its ratio to the acceleration of gravity.
