A rock is thrown straight up. At the top of the trajectory, the velocity is momentarily zero. Does this imply that the force acting on the object is zero? Explain your answer.
A 1.5 kg falling object stops accelerating and continues to move at constant velocity. What isthe amount of the air resistance encountered by the object?
If you throw a ball straight up into the air, how does the time it takes to reach its highest point compare to the time it takes to fall back to your hand? (ignore air resistance)
A hovercraft is initially at rest but floating above land. The hovercraft has two horizontal thrusters. One provides acceleration of aNORTH= 5.15 m/s2 (NORTH). The second one provides an acceleration of aEAST= 4.75 m/s2 (EAST). If the north thruster fires for 7.33 seconds and the east thruster fires for 4.87 seconds, what is the velocity of the hovercraft after both thrusters fired? Air resistance doesn't have an effect.
A pilot is flying a plane at 220 m/s and an altitude of 500 meters. If she needs to deliver supplies via air drop, how far away from the target should she release the cargo? The cargo's parachute slows the average acceleration of gravity to 0.75 m/s2. Answer in kilometers.(In reality, a parachute significantly reduces the terminal velocity, so it won't accelerate very long. But let's keep it simple and assume the cargo accelerates the whole way.) Note do not provide hand written solution
A rock and a feather dropped from the top of a building. Which will reach the ground first? When there is no air resistance and when there is air resistance? why? Explain fully.
Is it correct to that all of these are true execpt for the third statement? A person will feel weightlessness when: -in a free fall environment -air resistance acting on their body is negligeable -they weigh nothing due to reduced gravitational forces on their body -there is no support force to balance the force of gravity on their body
A 16276 kg helicopter moves upward with a constant acceleration from rest to a height of 493 m. The spinning blades create an upward thrust of 352370 N that lifts the helicopter into the air. How long does it take the helicopter to reach the height of 493 m? t = ________________________ s *Round to the nearest thousandth if necessary.
The speed limit for highway is typically 70 mph in MD. What is 70 mph in terms of m/s? 1.000 mile = 1609 m
A 1500 kg car is driving at 20 m/s. The driver wishes to stop over a distance of 30m. What force must the brakes apply to the car to do this? (Assume air resistancedoesn’t help stop the car.)
when a student steps on a bathroom scale inside an elevator that is ar rest, the cale reads 490N. when the elevator starts to move, the scale reads 425N. is the elevator moving up or down ? what is its acceleration ?
A skydiver ejects from his aircraft and falls 80 m from the ground without friction. Whenhe opens his parachute, he decelerates at 3.5 m/s2. The skydiver hits the ground at 5 m/s.How long was the pilot in the air and at what height did he begin his fall?
