The polar bear is an excellent swimmer, and it spends a large part of its time in the water. Suppose a polar bear wants to swim from an ice floe to a particular point on the shore. The bear dives into the water and begins swimming. As the bear swims, it tires and slows at a rate of 0.0122 m/s/s. By the time it reaches the shore, which is 40.1 m from where it dove into the water, its velocity is 2.13 m/s. How fast was the bear swimming when it first got into the water? ____________m/s

You throw a baseball directly upward at time t=0 at an initial speed of 12.3 m/s. What is the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand? Ignore air resistance and take ?=9.80 m/s2.
You throw a baseball directly upward at time t=0 at an initial speed of 13.3 m/s. What is the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand? Ignore air resistance and take g=9.80 m/s2. maximum height: At what times does the ball pass through half the maximum height? earlier time at half maximum height: later time at half maximum height:
Consider a grey squirrel falling from a tree to the ground. Use a coordinate system in which positive is downward for this problem. a) Find the squirrel’s velocity, in meters per second, just before hitting the ground when it falls from a height of 1.3 m. Ignore air resistance. b) The squirrel softens its landing by bending its legs when it touches the ground, thereby stopping itself over a distance of 7.6 cm. Assuming a constant rate of deceleration, find the squirrel’s acceleration during this process, in meters per second squared.
You throw a ball straight up. The ball leaves your hand at a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speedof 20.0 m/s (~45 mph). Ignore air resistance and use g = 10.0 m/s2. You can use a spreadsheet but show asample calculation for the velocity and the position at t = 1.5 s.
