A hockey player is standing on his skates on a frozen pondwhen an opposing player, moving with a uniform speed of 12m/s, skates by with the puck. After 3.0 s, the first player makesup his mind to chase his opponent. If he accelerates uniformlyat 4.0 m/s2, (a) how long does it take him to catch his opponent,and (b) how far has he traveled in that time? (Assumethe player with the puck remains in motion at constant speed.)
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?
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 block falls from rest off a building that is y = 196 m tall. At what time,in seconds, does the block hit the ground? How long, in seconds, does it take for the block to be y′ = 31 m off the ground? How much time, in seconds, does it take for the block to fall the additional y′ distance? What is the speed, in meters per second, of the block right before it hits the ground?
In the 1991 World Track and Field Championships in Tokyo, Mike Powell jumped 8.95 m, breaking by a full 5 cm the 23-year long-jump record set by Bob Beamon. Assume that Powell’s speed on takeoff was 9.5 m/s (about equal to that of a sprinter) and that g 9.80 m/s2 in Tokyo. How much less was Powell’s range than the maximum possible range for a particle launched at the same speed?
Atom Ant is traveling with an initial velocity of 20.0 cm/s. He begins toaccelerate at a rate of 8.00 cm/s2 for 5.00 s. What is his final velocity? Whatdistance does he travel in that time?
My pug/bulldog mix, Georgia, who is blind and deaf, gets a whiff of her dinner. As soon as it registers to her that it's dinnertime, she runs 4.12 meters from the middle of our living room to our kitchen, where she is satiated with her grub. If it takes her 4.45 s to get to the kitchen, what was her speed in m/s to the nearest hundredth?
As a science project, you drop a watermelon off the top of the Empire State Building, 320 m above the sidewalk. It so happens that Superman flies by at the instant you release the watermelon. Superman is headed straight down with a speed of 37.0 m/sm/s.How fast is the watermelon going when it passes Superman?
While riding on an elevator descending with a constant speed of 2.6 m/s, you accidentally drop a book from under your arm.A)How long does it take for the book to reach the elevator floor, 1.1 m below your arm? (Already answered it's 0.47s)B)What is the book's speed relative to you when it hits the elevator floor?
You are talking with a cell phone while trailing a police car by 20m; both ypur car andthe police car traveling at 100km/h. Your conversation diverts your attention fromthe police car for 2,0 s. At the beginning g of that 2,0s the police officer beginsbraking suddenly at 6m/s2. A- What is the separation between the two cars whenyour attention finally returns? Suppose that you take another 0,3 s to realize yourdanger and begin braking. B- If you too brake at 6m/s2, what is your speed when youhit the police car.
