A hard rubber ball, not affected by air resistance in its motion. is tossed upward from shoulder height, falls to the sidewalk, rebounds to a smaller maximum height, and is caught on its way down again. This motion is represented in Figure OQ2.17, where the successive positions of the ball through are not equally spaced in lime. At point the center of the ball is at its lowest point in the motion. The motion of the ball is along a straight, vertical line, but the diagram shows successive positions offset to the right to avoid overlapping. Choose the positive y direction to be upward. (a) Rank the situations through according to the speed of the ball |Yl at each point, with the largest speed first, (b) Rank the same situations according to the acceleration a% of the ball at each point. (In both rankings, remember that zero is greater than a negative value. If two values are equal, show that they are equal in your ranking.)
The graph in Figure 1.38 shows the distance versus time for an elevator as it moves up and down in a building. Compute the elevator's velocity at the times marked a, b, and c.
What is the velocity of a ball dropped from a height of 30 m when it hits the ground? Take the upward direction as positive. (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to three decimal places. Use g = 9.8 m/s?.) m/s
A runner wants to finish a 400 m race in 50.4 seconds. He accelarates from rest and attained his maximum velocity in 5.8 seconds. He then continue running the race with his maximum velocity until he finished the 400m race. What is his constant maximum velocity in m/s? Round off your final answer to three decimal places.
A falling stone takes Δt = 0.38 s to travel past a window 2.2 m tall (see the (Figure 1)). From what height above the top of the window did the stone fall? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
A ball is thrown straight down with an initial speed of 2.0 m/s from a height of 15 m. What is the position of the ball after 3.0 s, in meters? Use g = 9.8 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement
Instructions: WRITE THE COMPLETE SOLUTION, BOX THE FINAL ANSWER AND WRITE LEGIBLY. From the ground level, a marble is tossed vertically upward. A second marble is hurled vertically upward from the same position 6 seconds later at a velocity of 40 m/sec. What velocity was the first stone thrown with if the two stones collided 30 meters above the ground and the first stone was already heading down? Answer: 37.883 meters
