Cx². Notice how the relationship between y and x2 is 4. The data in Table 2 has the form y = linear (this is why a straight line fit the data so well on the previous plot). The constant C is the slope of the line on the y vs. x² plot! To assess the accuracy of your results, calculate the % error for C, using the formula shown below. For the accepted value, use C = 1.25 m/s2. experimental – accepted х 100 % error = accepted

Consider the equation s = s0 + v0t + a0t2/2 + j0t3/6 + S0t4/24 + c0t5/120 , where s is length, and t is time. What are the SI units of (a) s0, (b) v0, (c) a0, (d) j0, (e) S0, and (f) c0? The answers are case sensitive. If you want to insert superscript use the notation "^". For example "m/s^2" means meters per second squared.

The layout of the town of Popperville is a perfectly square grid, with blocks 100 feet long (Fig. P3.8). A cat leaves her house and travels to Mike Mulligans place 4 blocks west and 3 blocks north of its starting point. After lapping up the milk that Mike always leaves out, the cat travels an additional 1 block north and 3 blocks east to Mrs. McGillicuttys house. a. On your paper, carefully copy the grid of streets that contains the cats house, Mike Mulligans house, and Mrs. McGillicuttys house. Then draw and label three displacement vectors on your sketch: r1, the cats displacement from her house to Mike Mulligans; r2, the cats displacement from Mike Mulligans to Mrs. McGillicuttys; and rtot, the cats total displacement. b. Write an equation to relate the three displacement vectors you have drawn. c. Is the distance the cat traveled greater than, less than, or equal to the magnitude of the cats total displacement vector? Explain. FIGURE P3.8

A trapper walks a 5.0-km straigt4ine distance from his cabin to the lake, as shown in the following figure. Use a graphical method (the parallelogram rule) to determine the trapper’s displacement directly to the east and displacement directly to the north that sum up to his resultant displacement vector. If the trapper walked only in directions east and north, zigzagging his way to the lake, how many kilometers would he have to walk to get to the lake?
Perform the following calculations and express your answer using the correct number of significant digits. (a) A man has two bags weighing 13.5 lb and one bag with a weight of 10.2 lb. What is the total weight of the bags? (b) The force Fon an object is equal to its mass mmultiplied by its acceleration a . If a wagon with mass 55 kg accelerates at a rate of 0.0255m/s2 , what is the force on the wagon? (The unit of force is called the newton and it is expressed with the symbol N.)
In SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably mole comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical Intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0m/s=3.6km/h and 1.0m/s=2.2mi/h .
In this problem, the symbols M, L, and T represent the dimensions mass, length, and time, respectively. Consider the physical quantities V, ρ, and t with dimensions [V] = L3, [ρ] = ML-3, and [t] = T. (Here, the square bracket means “the dimensions of” so, for example, [V] represents the dimensions of the quantity V.)What are the dimensions of ∫ρdV? What are the dimensions of dV/dt? What are the dimensions of ρ(dV/dt)?
