Suppose a rocket ship in deep space moves with constant acceleration equal to 9.8 m/s2, which gives the illusion of normal gravity during the flight. (a) If it starts from rest, how long will it take to acquire a speed one-tenth that of light, which travels at 3.0 *108 m/s? (b) How far will it travel in so doing?
(a) Can the instantaneous velocity of an object at an instantof time ever be greater in magnitude than the average velocityover a time interval containing that instant? (b) Can it everbe less?
e rocket-driven sled Sonic Wind No. 2, used for investigating the physiological effects of large accelerations, runs on a straight, level track 1070 m (3500 ft) long. Starting from rest, it can reach a speed of 224 m/s(500 mi/h) in 0.900 s. (a) Compute the acceleration in m/s, assuming that it is constant. (b) What is the ratio of this acceleration to that of a freely falling body (8)? (c) What distance is covered in 0.900 s? (d) A magazine article states that at the end of a certain run, the speed of the sled de- creased from 283 m/s (632 mi/h) to zero in 1.40 s and that during this time the magnitude of the acceleration was greater than 40g. Are these figures consistent?
A bullet 2.50 cm long is fired at 450 m/s and passes straight through a 12.0 cm thick board, exiting at 275 m/s. (a) What is the average acceleration of the bullet through the board? (b) What is the total time that the bullet is in contact with the board? (c) What minimum thickness could the board have if it was supposed to bring the bullet to a stop? Choose the correct answer.

Physics Review A hockey player strikes a puck, giving it an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s in the positive x-direction. The puck slows uniformly to 6.00 m/s when it has traveled 40.0 m.

A driver uniformly accelerates his car such that a=6.851im/s2. a. Assuming he starts from rest, find the velocity of the car after it has accelerated for 4.55 s. b. If immediately after that 4.55 s the driver lays off the accelerator, slams on the brakes, and comes to a stop in the subsequent 5.62 s, what is the acceleration he experiences during that time, assuming the acceleration is constant?
An electronic line judge camera captures the impact of a 57.0-g tennis ball traveling at 33.0 m/s with the side line of a tennis court (Fig. P2.37). The ball rebounds with a speed of 20.0 m/s and is seen to be in contact with the ground for 4.00 ms. What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during the time it is in contact with the ground? Assume one-dimensional motion.
In a test run, a certain car accelerates uniformly from zero to 24.0 m/s in 2.95 s. (a) What is the magnitude of the cars acceleration? (b) How long does it take the car to change its speed from 10.0 m/s to 20.0 m/s? (c) Will doubling the time always double the change in speed? Why?

(b) The same train ordinarily decelerates at a rate of 1.65 m/s2. How long does it take to come to a stop from its top speed?
