When the pilot reverses the propeller in a boat moving north, the boat moves with an acceleration directed south. Assume the acceleration of the boat remains constant in magnitude and direction. What happens to the boat? (a) It eventually stops and remains stopped. (b) It eventually stops and then speeds up in the forward direction. (c) It eventually stops and then speeds up in the reverse direction. (d) It never stops but loses speed more and more slowly forever. (e) It never stops but continues to speed up in the forward direction.
The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with an acceleration of 5.60 m/s2 for 4.20 s, making straight skid marks 62.4 m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed does the car then strike the tree?
A player holds two baseballs a height h above the ground. He throws one ball vertically upward at speed v0 and the other vertically downward at the same speed. Calculate (a) the speed of each ball as it hits the ground and (b) the difference between their times of flight.
In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
An aging coyote cannot run fast enough to catch a roadrunner. He purchases on eBay a set of jet-powered roller skates, which provide a constant horizontal acceleration of 15.0 m/s2 (Fig. P3.57). The coyote starts at rest 70.0 m from the edge of a cliff at the instant the roadrunner zips past in the direction of the cliff. (a) Determine the minimum constant speed the roadrunner must have to reach the cliff before the coyote. At the edge of the cliff, the roadrunner escapes by making a sudden turn, while the coyote continues straight ahead. The coyotes skates remain horizontal and continue to operate while he is in flight, so his acceleration while in the air is (15.0i9.80j) m/s2. (b) The cliff is 100 m above the flat floor of the desert. Determine how far from the base of the vertical cliff the coyote lands. (c) Determine the components of the coyotes impact velocity.
A projectile is launched on the Earth with a certain initial velocity and moves without air resistance. Another projectile is launched with the same initial velocity on the Moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth as large. How does the range of the projectile on the Moon compare with that of the projectile on the Earth? (a) It is one-sixth as large. (b) It is the same. (c) It is 6 times larger. (d) It is 6 times larger. (e) It is 36 times larger.
Two trains, A and B, leave a train station at the same time but in different directions, one towards East and the other towards west. Train B travels 20km/h faster than train A. After 6 minutes, the two trains are 11 km apart. Find the average speed of each train. The answer is 45 km/h, 65km/ h but howwwwww to dooooo...
two car with a distance of 100m between them are moving in the same direction with the same speed. At t=0 s , the cars start to apply constant acceleration with the same magnitude but in opposite directions, simultaneously. at the 5th second, the cars are the same position, and one of the cars is stopping. calculate the velocity of the moving car at the 5th second. (ıf you use g ; take g = 10m/s2)
An elevator without a ceiling is ascending with a constant speed of 10 m/s. a boy on the elevator throws a ball directly upward, from a height of 2.0 m above the elevator floor, just as a elevator floor is 28 m above the ground. The initial speed of the ball with respect to the elevator is 20 m/s. How long (in seconds) does the ball take to return to the elevator floor? Give the Given and Solution:
The speed of a bullet as it travels down the barrel of a rifle toward the opening is given byv 5 (25.00 3 107)t 2 1 (3.00 3 105)twhere v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The acceleration of the bullet just as it leaves the barrel is zero. (a) Determine the acceleration and position of the bullet as functions of time when the bullet is in the barrel. (b) Determine the time interval over which the bullet is accelerated. (c) Find the speed at which the bullet leaves the barrel. (d) What is the length of the barrel?
A red train traveling at 72 km/h and a green train traveling at 144 km/h are headed toward each other on a straight, level track. When they are 950 m apart, each engineer sees the other's train and applies the breaks. The brakes slow each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s^2. Is there a collision? If so, what is the speed of the red train and the speed of the green train? If not, what is the separation between the trains when they stop?
Two trains, one training at 72.0km/h and the other at 144km/h, are headed toward one another along a straight, level track. when they are 1100m apart, each engineer sees the other;s train and applies the brakes. This causes each train to have an acceleration against the train direction of motion with the magnitude of 1.00 m/s^2. Calculate the distance required for each train to come to a complete stop and based on this result conclude whether there will be a collision? Calculate the time required for each train to come to a stop.
