starting from rest, a rocket is launched upward (a=4.20 m/s^2). At t=6.85 sec, the motor shuts off the rocket continues to coast upward until it reached its highest point. At highest point, a chute was introduced so that the rocket will fall at a constant speed of 0.935 m/s until it reaches the ground. Determine the maximum height, h, in meters

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 OQ2.13, where the successive positions of the ball through are not equally spaced in time. 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 |vy| at each point, with the largest speed first. (b) Rank the same situations according to the acceleration ay 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.) Figure OQ2.13
In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
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/s2 downward. What is the time it takes to reach maximum height? Multiple Choice 3.22 s 4.04 s 4.75 s 5.12 s 3.87 s

On the earth, an astronaut throws a ball straight upward; it stays in the air for a total time of 3.0 s before reaching the ground again. If a ball were to be thrown upward with the same initial speed on the moon, how much time would pass before it hit the ground?A. 7.3 s B. 18 s C. 44 s D. 108 s
A celebrated Mark Twain story has motivated contestants in the Calaveras County Jumping Frog Jubilee, where frog jumps as long as 2.20 m have been recorded. If a frog jumps 2.20 m and the launch angle is 44.0°, find the frog's launch speed and the time the frog spends in the air. Ignore air resistance. (a) the frog's launch speed (in m/s) m/s (b) the time the frog spends in the air (in s)

A ball is thrown straight up with initial speed 15.0 m/s and rises 11.5 m above the release point before returning to Earth. What initial velocity is required to make the ball rise twice as high? Ignore any effects due to air resistance.
A model rocket fired from the ground ascends with a constant upward acceleration. A small bolt is dropped from the rocket 1.0s after the firing and the fuel of the rocket is finished 4.0 s afrer the bolt is dropped. Air- time of the bolt is 2.0s. Acceleration of free fall is 10m/s^2. Which of the following statements is/are correct? a) acceleration of the rocket while ascending on its fuel is 8m/s^2 b) Fuel of the rocket was finished at a height 100m above the ground. c) maximum speed of the rocket during its upward flight is 40m/s d) Total air time of rocket is 15s
What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of a skier who, starting from rest, reaches a speed of 5.27 m/s when going down a slope for 1.14 s? How far does the skier travel in this time? (The absolute tolerance is + or - 0.1)
The cheetah can reach a top speed of 114 km/h (71 mi/h). While chasing its prey in a short sprint, a cheetah starts from rest and runs 50 m in a straight line, reaching a final speed of 89 km/h.
