Relative to the hockey stick, the ball is travelling at ____ m⋅s−1.
A base ball pitcher with a 90-mi/h fastball throws a ball while standing on a railroad flatcar moving at 110 mi/h. The ball is thrown in the same direction as that of the velocity of the train.If you apply the Galilean velocity transformation equation to this situation, is the speed of the ball relative to the Earth (a)90mi/h, (b)110mi/h, (c)20mi/h, (d) 200mi/h, or (e)imposssible to determine?
A railroad flatcar is traveling to the right at a speed of 13.0 m/sm/s relative to an observer standing on the ground. Someone is riding a motor scooter on the flatcar. a.

Suppose you are in a rocket with no windows, traveling in deep space far from other objects. Without looking outside the rocket or making any contact with the outside world, explain how you could determine whether the rocket is (a) moving forward at a constant 80% of the speed of light and (b) accelerating in the forward direction.
• A train travelling with a speed of 15m/s relative to Earth. A passenger standing at the rear of the train pitches s baseball with a speed of 15m/s relative to the train off the back end, in the direction opposite the motion of the train. (a) what is the velocity of the baseball relative to Earth? ( b) What is the velocity of the baseball relative to the Earth if thrown in the opposite direction at the same speed?
A 238U nucleus is moving in the x direction at 5.0×105 m/s when it decays into an alpha particle (4He) and a 234Th nucleus. If the alpha particle moves off at 22 degrees above the x axis with a speed of 1.1×107 m/s, a) What is the speed of the thorium nucleus and b) What is the direction of the motion of the thorium nucleus ( degrees clockwise from the x axis)?
A snake is crossing a stream with 0.86 m/s current flowing to the East. The snake is pointed downstream at an angle of θ = 62° with respect to the shore (North of East), but the current carries it downstream such that the speed of the snake in the Earth frame is 1.4 m/s at an angle of φ = 52° with respect to the shore (North of East). A. Draw a diagram of the situation including the relative velocity vectors for the snake in the frame of the water, the water in the frame of the Earth and the snake in the frame of the Earth. Label the vectors VSW, VWE and VSE. Be sure to label both
At an airport, Anna is stationary, Bert is walking at a speed of 1.0 m/s, Carla is standing while Dodong is walking on a platform that moves with a speed of 2.0 m/s. Anna observes Bert, Carla, and Dodong moving away from her in the same direction. Anna observes Dodong moving away from her at a speed of 3.0 m/s. What is Anna’s velocity relative to the ground or earth? 2.What is Dodong’s velocity with respect to Carla? 3.What is Dodong’s normal walking speed? 4.What is Carla’s velocity relative to Bert?
A rod of length L0 moving with a speed v along the horizontal direction makes an angle 0 with respect to the x axis. (a) Show that the length of the rod as measured by a stationary observer is L = L0[1 (v2/c2)cos2 0]1/2. (b) Show that the angle that the rod makes with the x axis is given by tan = tan 0. These results show that the rod is both contracted and rotated. (Take the lower end of the rod to be at the origin of the primed coordinate system.)
An observer in a rocket moves toward a mirror at speed v relative to the reference frame labeled by S in Figure P1.30. The mirror is stationary with respect to S. A light pulse emitted by the rocket travels toward the mirror and is reflected back to the rocket. The front of the rocket is a distance d from the mirror (as measured by observers in S) at the moment the light pulse leaves the rocket. What is the total travel time of the pulse as measured by observers in (a) the S frame and (b) the front of the rocket? Figure P1.30
One strategy in a snowball fight is to throw a snowball at a high angle over level ground. Then, while your opponent is watching that snowball, you throw a second one at a low angle timed to arrive before or at the same time as the first one. Assume both snowballs are thrown with a speed of 25.0 m/s. The first is thrown at an angle of 70.0 with respect to the horizontal. (a) At what angle should the second snowball be thrown to arrive at the same point as the first? (b) How many seconds later should the second snowball be thrown after the first for both to arrive at the same time?
