An aging coyote cannot run fast enough to catch a roadrunner. He purchases on eBay a set of jet-powered roller skates, which provide a constant horizontal acceleration of 15.0 m/s2 (Fig. P3.57). The coyote starts at rest 70.0 m from the edge of a cliff at the instant the roadrunner zips past in the direction of the cliff. (a) Determine the minimum constant speed the roadrunner must have to reach the cliff before the coyote. At the edge of the cliff, the roadrunner escapes by making a sudden turn, while the coyote continues straight ahead. The coyotes skates remain horizontal and continue to operate while he is in flight, so his acceleration while in the air is (15.0i9.80j) m/s2. (b) The cliff is 100 m above the flat floor of the desert. Determine how far from the base of the vertical cliff the coyote lands. (c) Determine the components of the coyotes impact velocity.
The lunar roving vehicle in NASA’s late Apollo mission reached an unofficial lunar landing speed of 5.00 m/s. Suppose, while traveling at that speed, it hit a bump that launched it at an angle of 22.4 degrees above horizontal lunar surface. a. How long, in seconds, would the vehicle be off the ground? The acceleration of gravity in the moon has a value of 1.62 m/s2.
Curiosity, the Mars rover designed to explore Gale Crate has a maximum speed of 0.14 km/h. If the rover was moving at this speed on a flat Martian surface and hit a small bump that projected it off the surface at an angle of 28°, how long would it be “airborne” on Mars given that the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.711 m/s²?
Apollo astronauts took a “nine iron” to the Moon and hit a golf ball about 180m. Assuming that the swing, launch angle, and so on, were the same as on Earth where the same astronaut could hit it only 32m, estimate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon. (We neglect air resistance in both cases, but on the Moon there is none.)

A 480g falcon can reach high speeds near the ground after vertically diving from heights approaching 200m after starting with a zero (vertical) speed. Calculate such speed after assuming the falcon speeding up under the influence of gravity only. Answer a) 0.00m/sAnswer b) 62.6m/sAnswer c) 75.0m/sAnswer d) 200m/s
Can we have zero acceleration yet the object is still moving? Explain.
An unsuspecting bird is coasting along in an easterly direction at 2.00 mph when a strong wind from the south imparts a constant acceleration of 0.300 m/s2 . If the wind's acceleration lasts for 3.40 s , find the magnitude ? and direction ?(measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction) of the bird's displacement over this time interval. Assume that the bird is originally travelling in the +? direction and that there are 1609 m in 1 mi . r=3.499m ?= 27.71∘ Now, assume the same bird is moving along again at 2.00 mph in an easterly direction, but this time, the acceleration given by the wind is at a ?=37.0° angle to the original direction of motion, measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction. If the magnitude of the acceleration is 0.300 m/s2 , find the displacement vector ?⃗ and the angle of the displacement ?1 . Enter the components of the vector, ?? and ?? , and the angle. Assume the time interval is still 3.40 s . ?⃗=???̂+???̂

During World War I, the Germans had a gun called Big Bertha that was used to shell Paris. The shell had an initial speed of 1.42 km/s at an initial inclination of 65.7◦ to the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. a) How far away did the shell hit in km. b) How long was it in the air in s?
A plain flies 660mi from Philippines to Thailand in 1.2 HR when travelling with a tail-wind. The return flight against the same wind takes 1.5 he. Find the speed of the plane in still air and the speed of the wind.
A rocket is launched from the origin with an acceleration of 20.0 m/s2 at an angle of 30.0 degrees above the horizontal. The launch acceleration lasts for 2.00 seconds at which time the fuel is exhausted. The rocket then falls with an acceleration of 9.80 m/s2downward. What is the maximum height attained?
