75. ssm A speed ramp at an airport is basically a large conveyor belt on
which you can stand and be moved along. The belt of one ramp moves at
a constant speed such that a person who stands still on it leaves the ramp
64 s after getting on. Clifford is in a real hurry, however, and skips the
speed ramp. Starting from rest with an acceleration of 0.37 m/s², he cov-
ers the same distance as the ramp does, but in one-fourth the time. What
is the speed at which the belt of the ramp is moving?
55-56 The velocity function (in meters per second) is given

- Figure 2-42 shows a simple device for measuring your reaction time. It consists of a cardboard strip marked with a scale and two large dots. A friend holds the strip vertically, with thumb and forefinger at the dot on the right in Fig. 2-42. You then position your thumb and forefinger at the other dot (on the left in Fig. 2-42), being careful not to touch the strip. Your friend releases the strip, and you try to pinch it as soon as possible after you see it begin to fall. The mark at the place where you pinch the strip gives your reaction time. (a) How far from the lower dot should you place the 50.0 ms mark? How much higher should you place the marks for (b) 100, (c) 150, (d) 200, and (e) 250 ms? (For example, should the 100 ms marker be 2 times as far from the dot as the 50 ms marker? If so, give an answer of 2 times. Can you find any pattern in the answers?)arrow_forwardTwo trains A and B of length 800 m each are moving on two parallel tracks with a uniform speed of 144 km h-1 in the same direction, with A ahead of B.

It just misses the edge of the roof on the way down (when it is in free fall) and passes a point a distance 10.0 m below its starting point at a time 4.75 s. Air resistance may be ignored.
