Plus and minus signs are used in one-dimensional motion to indicate direction. What is the sign of an acceleration that reduces the magnitude of a negative velocity? Of a positive velocity?
cupid is a friend of O'Malley and took exception to the tow sots, so he flew off and landed on a building 125m tall. he then shot a real arrow at an angle of 37 degree with a velocity of 65m/s. how much time so the guys have left, cupid doens't miss.
2. Wellington Wildcat is rushing to get to a parade in time to be the grand marshal. He’s standing in theback of a flatbed truck while McFogg the Dog races at 25 m/s towards town. Suddenly, McFogg sees atiny maple leaf in the road 55 m ahead, and, being a proud Canadian, slams on the brakes to protect thesacred totem. Since McFogg is known to ride the brakes like a real jerk, let’s assume his reaction time tohit the breaks is essentially zero.A. Can McFogg actually stop before the truck reaches the leaf? The coefficients of friction betweenrubber tires and dry concrete are: μs = 1.00, μk = 0.80. When answering this question, be sure toinclude a free-body diagram representing the truck and its stellar mascots as a single object.B. Now here’s the real serious question: Is it possible for McFogg to stop short of the leaf such thatWellington does not slip and slide into the back of the truck cab? The coefficients of friction forWellington’s shoes on the bed of the truck are: μs = 0.60, μk…
A basketball player jumps straight up to grab a rebound. If she’s in the air for 0.80 seconds, how high did she jump? (Hint: Treat this as a problem where the player comes down from the peak of her )
Grant jumps 1.90 m straight up into the air to slam-dunk a basketball into the net. With what speed did he leave the floor?
in a circus act, an acrobat rebounds upward from the surface of a trampoline at the exact moment that another acrobat, perched 9.0 m above him, releases a ball from rest. While still in flight, the acrobat catches the ball just as it reaches him. If he left the trampoline with a speed of 7.6 m/s, how long is he in the air before he catches the ball? (FYI I don't necessarily need the answer but I would really like to know how to solve it, as I don't know how)
Two ducks, Donald and Cassiopeia, are gliding gracefully toward eachother along a pond, in a straight line. Donald is initially moving at v =0.500 m/s, and begins accelerating at 0.100 m/s2 at t = 0 s. Cassiopeiamoves at a constant speed of v = 0.700 m/s. If they are initially separatedby 25.0 m, where will they collide? Take Donald’s initial position as theorigin. How long will it take for them to collide?

A basketball player dribbling clown the court usually keeps his eyes fixed on the players around him. He is moving fast. Why doesn't he need to keep his eyes on the ball?
Two students are on a balcony a distance h above the street. One student throws a ball vertically downward at a speed vi, at the same time, the other student throws a ball vertically upward at the same speed. Answer the following symbolically in terms of vi, g, h. and t. (a) What is the time interval between when the first ball strikes the ground and the second ball strikes the ground? (b) Find the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground, (c) How far apart are the balls at a time t after they are thrown and before they strike the ground?
