A monkey hanging from a tree branch sees a hunter aiming a rifle directly at him. The monkey then sees a flash and knows that the rifle has been fired. Reacting quickly, the monkey lets go of the branch and drops so that the bullet can pass harmlessly over his head. Does this act save the monkey’s life? Why or why not? (Hint: Consider the similarities between this situation and that of Exercise 24.11.)

Two triggers, 20 feet apart, activate when a car's tires run over them. The time between the two signals is 0.4 seconds. 1) Calculate the speed of the car in mph. (This may speed your conversion: 88 ft/s = 60 mph.) 2) how might someone evade the speed trap, if he spots it just as he's about to hit the first signal?

There is a galactic, royal wedding in El Candrea. Maria Isabela, the princess of andalusia prima maxima, is riding a diamond-studded, pink spacetime motorcycle whose maximum speed is 5x10^2 km/s. The religious princess started her speed at about 5x10^1 km/s and she is to supposed to travel 1.78 x 10^4 km at a straight distance in about 60 seconds to reach the wedding before the galactic church closes. The princess accelerated until her max speed was reached. She then maintains the aforementioned speed till she reached the wedding gates. To reach the church before it closes, what should be her minimum constant acceleration? a. 8.30 km/s^2, b. 7.50 km/s^2, c. 5.29 km/s^2, or d. 6.95 km/s^2

Light is the fastest thing in the universe, moving at 299,792,458m/s. For the fun of it, let’s assume an object was thrown at the speed of light straight up. Let’s also assume that only Earth’s gravity could slow it down, and acted with the same downward acceleration no matter how far away the object was. a.)How long would it take for the object to come to a stop? (please answer in days) B.)How far would the object have travelled in this time?
Captain Kirk is chasing a Gorn and sees the Gorn will reach safety in 250m, as measured from Kirk's location. Kirk is running at 5 m/s while the Gorn is running at 4 m/s and the Gorn has a 90m head start. Scotty brings the transporter back online and can transport Kirk instantly to catch the Gorn. How far must Kirk be transported to catch the Gorn before it reaches safety? Assume the transport is instant.
