Your friend and you are both in Calgary for a chess tournament. You each drive your own vehicle to CrossIron Mills mall. You take Stoney Trail (a freeway that goes around the city) and your friend takes Deerfoot Trail (a freeway that goes through the city). Explain how you accelerated your car by turning the steering wheel while maintaining a constant speed.

A child is practicing for a BMX race. His speed remains constant as he goes counterclockwise around a level track with two straight sections and two nearly semicircular sections as shown in the aerial view of Figure OQ5.9. (a) Rank the magnitudes of his acceleration at the points A, B, C, D, and E from largest to smallest. If his acceleration is the same size at two points, display that fact in your ranking. If his acceleration is zero, display that fact. (b) What are the directions of his velocity at points A, B, and C? For each point, choose one: north, south, east, west, or nonexistent. (c) What are the directions of his acceleration at points A, B, and C? Figure OQ5.9
As their booster rockets separate, Space Shuttle astronauts typically feel accelerations up to 3g, where g = 9.80 m/s2. In their training, astronauts ride in a device where they experience such an acceleration as a centripetal acceleration. Specifically, the astronaut is fastened securely at the end of a mechanical arm, which then turns at constant speed in a horizontal circle. Determine the rotation rate, in revolutions per second, required to give an astronaut a centripetal acceleration of 3.00g while in circular motion with radius 9.45 m.
Astronauts walking on the Moon are seen bounding rather than walking normally. Why?
A 1500 kg car traveling at 12 m/s suddenly runs out of gas while approaching the valley shown in the figure. The alert driver immediately puts the car in neutral so that it will roll. What will be the car’s speed as it coasts into the gas station on the other side of the valley?
In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a balloon nearly at an altitude of 3150 m above the ground. Suppose a coin falls from Menin’s pocket during his walk. How high above the ground is the coin when its speed is 60.0 m/s?
Ignoring drag, what is the x-component of the acceleration of a projectile? Why?
I need help with Q3 and Q4. Thanks.
Q3, Please help me solve. TY!
True or False? Consider carts colliding on a straight level track. It is impossible for two identical carts moving at different speeds to collide and stick together and end up not moving.
On which of these hills does the ball roll down with increasing speed and decreasing acceleration along the path? (Use this example if you wish to explain to someone the difference between speed and acceleration.)
Apparently, Felix chose this tower as his testing location due to a strangely soft and cushiony rock formation at the base. Meaning the cats will land unharmed. A) If Felix flings the felines flat, meaning no initial vertical velocity, how long will it take the cats to land on a platform 10 meters below? Just consider the one, vertical, dimension?
Force F1 = 10 N @ 30∘∘ and force F2 = 8N @ 270∘∘. Calculate the direction of F1 + F2.
