- In the traditional Hansel and Gretel fable, the children drop crumbs of bread on the ground to mark their path through the woods. Unfortunately, the crumbs are eaten by birds, and the children cannot find their way home. In this modern-day problem, the children use a device that releases a drop of food dye once per minute. As long as it does not rain, they can find their way home. As an extra bonus, they make a motion diagram as shown in Figure P2.6. a. Describe the motion of the children in words. b. Using the coordinate system in Figure P2.6, make a position-versus-time graph. Note any ambiguities you encounter. c. Is your position-versus-time graph consistent with your description in part (a)? Explain.arrow_forwardAfter a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by v=1.2i9.8tj where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The balls displacement away from the edge of the table, during the time interval of 0.380 s for which the ball is in flight, is given by r=00.3803vdt To perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem [A+Bf(x)]dx=Adx+Bf(x)dx You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s.arrow_forwardEach of the following equations was given by a student during an examination: (a) 12mv2=12mv02+mgh (b) v = v0 + at2 (c) ma = v2.

It is reasonable to assume that the echo time equals the time necessary for the radio wave to travel from the Earth to the Moon and back (that is, neglecting any time delays in the electronic equipment). Calculate the distance from Earth to the Moon given that the echo time was 2.56 s and that radio waves travel at the speed of light (3.00108 m/s).arrow_forward
