• VP3. As some molten metal splashes, one droplet flies off to the east with initial velocity v; at angle Ui above the horizontal, and another droplet flies off to the west with the same speed at the same angle above the horizontal as shown in the figure below. In terms of vj and Oi, find the distance between the two droplets as a function of time.

Give an example in which there are clear distinctions among distance traveled, displacement, and magnitude of displacement. Specifically identify each quantity in your example.
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?
Two students air on a balcony a distance h above the street. One student throws a ball vertically down-ward at a speed v0; at the same time, the other student throws a ball vertically upward at the same speed. Answer the following symbolically in terms of v0, g, h, and t. (a) Write the kinematic equation for the y-coordinate of each ball, (b) Set the equations found in part (a) equal to height 0 and solve each for t symbolically using the quadratic formula. What is the difference in the two balls' time in the air? (c) Use the time-independent kinematics equation to find the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground, (d) How far apart are the balls at a time t after they are released and before the strike the ground?
Please assist with this question with details on how to do it. Thank you. Mayan kings and many school sports team are named for the puma, cougar, or mountain lion - felis concolor- the best jumper among animals. It can jump to a height of 12 ft when leaving the ground at an angle of 45 degrees. With the speed , in SI units, does it leave the ground to make this leap?
A student who aspires to ace his quiz in Phys134 went to a wishing well. He dropped his first 10-peso coin and made a quick wish. Two seconds after he dropped his first coin, he threw another 10-peso coin vertically downward with a speed of 30m/s. How long will it take the second coin to overtake the first?
A golfer strikes a golf ball with an initial velocity of 45 m/s at an angle of 40° to the horizon. What is the balls velocity just before it strikes the ground? What is the y velocity at the apex of the ball’s motion? Calculate the total time the ball will be in the air. Calculate the maximum range of the ball (how far does it go?) Calculate the maximum height reached by the ball?
A volcano shoots a lava bomb straight upward. Does the displacement of the lava bomb depend on (a) your choice of origin foryour coordinate system, or (b) your choice of a positive direction?Explain in each case.
A Tennis player hits a ball 2.0 m above the ground at an angle 5º above the horizontal. The horizontal distance to the net is 7.0 m and the net is 1.0m high. What is the minimum initial speed, vi, needed to clear the net? (Hint: this is like the problem done in the handout, but since we don’t know the initial speed, we have to find horizontal and vertical components and the time symbolically and carry that through.) Im so confused and don't know where to start...
Suppose that Sue runs faster than Kathy throughout a1500-meter race. What is the physical meaning of the areabetween their velocity curves for the first minute of the race?
During a fireworks display, a shell is shot into the air with an initial speed of 70 m s-1 at an angle of 75º above the horizontal, as illustrated in Diagram FD. The fuse is made so that the shell explodes just as it reaches its highest point above the ground. Calculate the height at which the shell explodes.
I'm not sure how to solve this! I tried and got 1.3 / 2.4 seconds. Am i right? Could you explain how to do it if i'm not? Cheers ! In a classic Seinfeld episode, Jerry tosses a loaf of bread (a marble rye) straight upward to his friend George who is leaning out of a third-story window. If the loaf of bread leaves Jerry's hand at a height of 1 m with an initial velocity of 18 m/sec, write an equation for the vertical position of the bread s (in meters) t seconds after release. How long will it take the bread to reach George if he catches the bread on the way up at a height of 16 m? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.
