The fastest server in women's tennis is Sabine Lisicki, who recorded a serve of 131 mi/h(211 km/h) in 2014. Suppose that the acceleration of the ball was constant during the contact with the racket. If her racket pushed on the ball for a distance of 0.15 m, what was the acceleration of the ball during her serve? What was the time interval for the racket-ball contact?

A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large. How does the range of the projectile on the Moon compare with that of the projectile on the Earth? (a) It is one-sixth as large. (b) It is the same. (c) It is 6 times larger. (d) It is 6 times larger. (e) It is 36 times larger.
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.
The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with an acceleration of 5.60 m/s2 for 4.20 s, making straight skid marks 62.4 m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed does the car then strike the tree?
Problem 1: WHat is the numerical value of the rate under which the free-falling object changes its speed? Problem 2: Consider the equation y= 7.57x^2 + 5.32x + 1.48 that is being displayed on a position vs. time plot for an accelerated object. What is the value of acceleration? What is the value of the initial speed? What is the starting position of this object?
A particle moves down a horizontal route that begins 5 feet to the right of a specific point P with an initial velocity of 4 feet per second. Another particle is going along the same route, beginning 3 feet to the left of P with an initial velocity of 8 feet per second. Consider that the accelerations of the two particles are a1(t) = 2t 3 and a2(t) = 2t 5, respectively. Will the particles collide? Justify your response
An elevator 2.25 m high rises with a constant acceleration of 2.19 m / s2, and at the moment the velocity is 2.0 m / s, a screw is detached from the ceiling of the elevator. After how long does the screw hit the elevator floor?
For a body moving with uniform acceleration its final velocity equals _________________. A) average velocity - initial velocity B) 2 x average velocity - initial velocity C) 2 x average velocity + initial velocity D) average velocity + initial velocity
A golfer wants to put the ball into the final hole which lies 7.0 m away from the ball and up a slight hill. Because of the incline while the ball moves up this hill will experience a constant deceleration of 1.8 m/s^2. Which initial velocity should the golfer give the ball if they want to make it go precisely into the hole? Please answer in m/s
An apple is falling from an apple tree. Which of the following statements is true? a. Speed and acceleration of the apple remains constant b. Speed of the apple decreases and its acceleration remains constant c. Speed of the apple remains constant and its acceleration increases d. Speed of the apple increases and its acceleration remains constant
At the beginning of a basketball game, a referee tosses the ball straight up with a speed of 4.6 m/s. A player cannot touch the ball until after it reaches its maximum height and begins to fall down. What is the minimum time that a player must wait before touching the ball? (Cutnell 2.42) 0.47 s
A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose sailboat has capsized. One of the rescuers tosses a life preserver straight down to the person with an initial speed of 1.25 m/s and observes that it takes 1.75 s to reach the water. How high above the water was the preserver released? Note that the downdraft of the helicopter reduces the effect of air resistance on the falling life preserver, so that an acceleration equal to that due to gravity is reasonable.
Recall the famous experiment of Galileo Galilei on top of the leaning tower of Pisa? If he accidentally dropped one stone 1.0 s ahead of the other, with what initial velocity (in m/s) must the second stone would have to be thrown if the two stones would hit the ground at the same time? Note: The tower is 54 m high.
