A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.42
In his 1865 science fiction novel From the Earth to the Moon, Jules Verne described how three astronauts are shot to the Moon by means of a huge gun. According to Verne, the aluminum capsule containing the astronauts is accelerated by ignition of nitrocellulose to a speed of 11 km/s along the gun barrel’s length of 220 m. (a) In g units, what is the average acceleration of the capsule and astronauts in the gun barrel? (b) Is that acceleration tolerable or deadly to the astronauts? A modern version of such gun-launched spacecraft (although without passengers) has been proposed. In this modern version, called the SHARP (Super High Altitude Research Project) gun, ignition of methane and air shoves a piston along the gun’s tube, compressing hydrogen gas that then launches a rocket. During this launch, the rocket moves 3.5 km and reaches a speed of 7.0 km/s. Once launched, the rocket can be fired to gain additional speed. (c) In g units, what would be the average acceleration of the rocket…
Two small spacecraft, each with a mass m = 2000 kg, are in orbit circular Earth, at an altitude h of 400 km. Igor, the commander of one of the ships, arrives at any fixed point in orbit 90 s ahead of Picard, the commander of the other ship. What are the (a) periods T0 and (b) the speed v0 of the ships? At point P, Picard shoots an instantaneous burst in the forward direction, slowing your ship by 1.00%. After this explosion, the elliptical orbit follows, which is shown discontinuous in the figure. What are (c) the kinetic energy and (d) the potential energy of your ship immediately after the explosion? In Picard's new elliptical orbit, what are (e) the total energy E, (f) the semi-major axis a, and (g) the orbital period T? (h) How long before Igor will return Picard to P? Since you can only ansewer to 3 sub-parts, I'll ask here (a,b,c) and submit another question for (d,e,f), (g,h). Thanks.

A red train traveling at 72 miles/hour (mph) and a green train traveling at 100 mph are headed toward one another along a straight, level track. When they are 2500 feet apart, each engineer sees the other's train and applies the brakes. The brakes decelerates each train at the rate of 2.0 meters per second squared. Is their a collision? If so, what is the speed of each train at impact? If not, what is the separation between the trains when they stop? Give the given and solution:
Consider a dragster that, when the light turns green, accelerates uniformly from rest and completes a 372 meter race in a time of 6.61 seconds. a) During this period, what is the dragster's acceleration expressed as a multiple of the acceleration due to gravity, g? b) If the dragster could continue with this average acceleration, what would its speed be, in miles per hour, after it has traveled a total distance of 1.6km1.6km, which is approximately one mile?
3.13 A car comes to a bridge during a storm and finds the bridge washed out. The driver must get to the other side, so he decides to try leaping it with his car. The side the car is on is 20.6 mm above the river, whereas the opposite side is a mere 1.9 mm above the river. The river itself is a raging torrent 60.0 mm wide. 1.How fast should the car be traveling just as it leaves the cliff in order to just clear the river and land safely on the opposite side?2.What is the speed of the car just before it lands safely on the other side?
4(b) How fast is the bug moving when it is moving its fastest? Explain.
A bomb is designed to explode 4.00 s after it is armed. The bomb is launched from earth and accelerated to an unknown final speed. After reaching its final speed, however, the bomb is observed by people on earth to explode 6.5 s after it is armed. What is the final speed of the bomb just before it explodes? a) 0.933c b) 0.882c c) 0.981c d) 0.788c e) 0.539c
2. Also, please make sure to define the variables so that I can understand and explain to me what the problem is about.
A player using a cue accelerates a shuffleboard disk at a constant 7.3m/s2 from rest for 0.65sec. At this point the disk loses contact with the cue and slows down at a constant rate of 2.3 m/s2 until it stops. What is the total distance traversed by the disk?
