My pug/bulldog mix, Georgia, who is blind and deaf, gets a whiff of her dinner. As soon as it registers to her that it's dinnertime, she runs 4.12 meters from the middle of our living room to our kitchen, where she is satiated with her grub. If it takes her 4.45 s to get to the kitchen, what was her speed in m/s to the nearest hundredth?
An athlete crosses a 25-m-wide river by swimmingperpendicular to the water current at a speed of 0.5 m/srelative to the water. He reaches the opposite side at adistance 40 m downstream from his starting point. How fast isthe water in the river flowing with respect to the ground? Whatis the speed of the swimmer with respect to a friend at rest onthe ground?
In one dimension, does a negative acceleration mean that a particle is necessarilyslowing down? Explain.
A Ford Territory and a Montero Sport are traveling in the same direction at 60.0 kph on a straight highway, parallel to each other, and the Territory is ahead of Montero by 248,90 kph. At a certain time, Territory decelerates uniformly at 2.50 m/s2, whereas the Montero accelerates uniformly at 2.0 m/s2. At what distance measured from the initial position of Montero will it overtake Ford Territory.
The driver of a car is initially moving at a constant speed of 68.3 km/h when a traffic light turns red. If a 0.525 s reaction time is required before the brakes can be applied, what is the distance in meters traveled by the car before it begins to slow down?
Driving along a crowded freeway, you notice that it takes atime t to go from one mile marker to the next. When you increaseyour speed by 7.9 mi>h, the time to go one mile decreases by 13 s.What was your original speed?
A student see's her physical professor approaching on the side walk that runs by her dorm , She gets a water ballon and waits. When the professor is 2.0s from being directly under the window about 11m from the sidewalk , she drops the balloon what happens?
Can the magnitude of a particle’s displacement be greater that the distance traveled?
A car can be braked to a stop from the autobahn-likespeed of 200 km/h in 170 m. Assuming the acceleration is constant,find its magnitude in (a) SI units and (b) in terms of g. (c) How muchtime Tb is required for the braking? Your reaction time Tr is the timeyou require to perceive an emergency, move your foot to the brake,and begin the braking. If Tr = 400 ms, then (d) what is Tb in terms ofTr, and (e) is most of the full time required to stop spent in reactingor braking? Dark sunglasses delay the visual signals sent from theeyes to the visual cortex in the brain, increasing Tr. (f) In the extremecase in which Tr is increased by 100 ms, how much farther doesthe car travel during your reaction time?
A world-class tennis player can serve a tennis ball at 150 mi/hmi/h (about 67 m/sm/s ). The length of a tennis court is 78 ftft . Approximately how long does an opponent have to react from the instant the ball is served until the ball reaches the opponent?
A motorboat is crossing a river that flows eastward at a speed of 5 kph. If the boat needs to maintain its northward course and a speed of 10kph relative to an observer standing on the river bank, what should be its velocity relative to the river? Hint: Solve for Vbr.
