Unreasonable results A dolphin in an aquatic show jumps straight up out of the water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s. (a) List the knowns in this problem. (b) How high does his body rise above the water? To solve this part, first note that the final velocity is now a known, and identify its value. Then, identify the unknown and discuss how you chose the appropriate equation to solve for it. After choosing the equation, show your steps in solving for the unknown, checking units, and discuss whether the answer is reasonable. (c) How long a time is the dolphin in the air? Neglect any effects resulting from his size or orientation.

Now let’s apply our definition of average velocity to a swimming competition. During one heat of a swim meet, a swimmer performs the crawl stroke in a pool 50.0 mm long, as shown in (Figure attached). She swims a length at racing speed, taking 24.0 ss to cover the length of the pool. She then takes twice that time to swim casually back to her starting point. Find (a) her average velocity for each length and (b) her average velocity for the entire swim. If the swimmer could cross a 13 kmkm channel maintaining the same average velocity as for the first 50 mm in the pool, how long would it take? Express your answer in hours.
Terence is thrown from a point above the ground. The height at ground level is given by the equation h = -4t^2 + 24t, where h is the height in meters and t is the time in seconds. What is the maximum height he can reach? How long will he take to reach the maximum height?
Spud Webb, height 5'7", was one of the shortest basketball players to play in the NBA. But he had an impressive vertical leap; he was reportedly able to jump 110 cm off the ground. Hint: suggest using the Prep and Solve steps. To jump this high, with what speed would he leave the ground? What was his hang time (how long was he off the ground)?
A rocket sled having an initial speed of 150 mi/hr is slowed by a channel of water. Assume that during the braking process, the acceleration a is given by a(v)=-mu v2 , where v is the velocity and mu is a constant. If it requires a distance of 2000 ft to slow the sled to 15 mi/hr, determine the value of mu?
A fireworks shell shot straight up with am inn initial velocity of 120 feet per second. Its height S in feet after t seconds is approximated by the equation s=120t - 16t2 If the shell is designed to explode when it reaches it maximum height how long after being fired, and at what height, will the fireworks appear in the sky?
A bullet is fired at an angle of 45° with an initial velocity of 200 m/s. How long is the bullet in the air? What is the maximum height reached by the bullet? Note: Make an illustration too with a complete solution. Do it digitally-not handwritten. Thank you
Allan is explaining the wonders of nature to his son. He and his son went to a roof top of a 120m-high building, then he threw a stone from the rooftop. 1. Neglecting the air friction, what is the acceleration of the stone due to gravity? 2. At what time will the stone fall to the ground? 3. With what velocity will a stone strike the ground if dropped from the top of a building?
An apple falls from a tree and hits the ground 5 meters below. What is the apples velocity the instant before it hits the ground? Your answer should be in units of m/s.
I am doing a free-fall experiment for Physics and I need to make a velocity vs. time graph using the average value of the final velocity. Do you know how I would be able to find the values for the velocity vs. time graph? The average value of the final velocity is 6.21954 m/s. It is question #9.
