An Olympic diver is on a diving platform 4.5 m above the water. To start her dive, she runs off of the platform with a speed of 1.3 m/s in the horizontal direction. You will be asked to find the diver's speed just before she enters the water. What are the givens in the y-direction? v0y = 1.3 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = 4.5 m v0y = 0 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = 4.5 m v0y = 1.3 m/s; ay = 0 m/s2; Δy = -4.5 m v0y = 0 m/s; ay = -9.8 m/s2; Δy = -4.5 m
A football is placed at rest on the field with initial coordinates x0 = 0 and y0 = 0.

A classic physics problem states that if a projectile is shot vertically up into the air with an initial velocity of 146 feet per second from an initial height of 89 feet off the ground, then the height of the projectile, h, in feet, t seconds after it's shot is given by the equation: h=−16t2+146t+89h=-16t2+146t+89 Find the two points in time when the object is 126 feet above the ground (to one decimal places). Answer: The object is 126 feet off the ground at the following times: (Enter your two answers separated by a comma. Round to ONE decimal places.)
A game requires that two children each throw a ball upward as high as possible from point O and then run horizontally in opposite directions away from O. The child who travels the greater distance before their thrown ball impacts the ground wins. If child A throws a ball upward with a speed of v1 = 59 ft/sec and immediately runs leftward at a constant speed of vA = 14 ft/sec while child B throws the ball upward with a speed of v2 = 56 ft/sec and immediately runs rightward with a constant speed of vB = 16 ft/sec, which child will win the game? Calculate the distances sA and sB that each child travels while the respective ball is in the air.
A golf ball struck on earth rises to a maximum height of 60 m and hits the ground 230 m away. How high will the same golf ball travel on the moon if the magnitude and direction of its velocity are the same as they were on earth immediately after the ball was hit? Assume that the ball is hit and lands at the same elevation in both cases and that the effect of the atmosphere on the earth is neglected, so that the trajectory in both cases is a parabola. The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 0.165 times that on earth.
A toy frog is initially at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system. Upon leaping, its position after a second is given by P = (5.0 cm)i + (7.0 cm)j + (3.0 cm) k What is the distance (in centimeter) traveled by the toy frog assuming straight-line motion?
A seasoned mini golfer is trying to make par on a tricky number five hole. The golfer can complete the hole by hitting the ball from the flat section it lays on, up a 45∘45∘ ramp, over a moat, and into the hole which is ?=1.90 md=1.90 m away from the end of the ramp. If the opening of the hole and the end of the ramp are at the same height, ?=0.880 m,y=0.880 m, at what speed must the golfer hit the ball to launch the ball over the moat so that it lands directly in the hole? Assume a frictionless surface, so the ball slides without rotating. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
On a spacecraft two engines fire for a time of 389 s. One gives the craft an acceleration in the x direction of ax = 3.41 m/s^2, while the other produces an acceleration in the y direction of ay = 7.34 m/s^2. At the end of the firing period, the craft has velocity components of vx = 1860 m/s and vy = 4290 m/s. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the initial velocity. Express the direction as an angle with respect to the +x axis.
A mountain climber jumps a crevasse of width W by leaping horizontally with speed V0. If the height difference between the two sides of the crevasse is h, what is the minimum value for the climber to land safely on the other side? In this case, what is the climber’s direction of motion landing? Graph and solve for the answer.
A spacecraft is traveling through space parallel to the x direction with an initial velocity of magnitude v0 = 3070 m/s.
