A clown juggle balls while doing other activities. In one act, she throws a ball vertically upward, and while it is in the air, she runs to and from a table 5.5 m away at constant speed of 2.5 m/s, returning just in time to catch the falling ball. With what minimum initial speed must she throw the ball upward to accomplish the act?

- a boat leaves a dock at 2:00 p.m., heading west at 15 km/h. Another boat heads south at 12 km/h and reaches the same dock at 3:00 p.m. When were the boats closest to each other?arrow_forwardA person has to leave a person A, located on the right bank, on the left bank of a river and pick up another person B from the left bank and pass him to the right. Due to the effects of the current, the rafter decides to go diagonally; If person B has to disembark 18 m from where the raft leaves and the raft is initially in front of him, how far must B walk at least so that the boat trip is the shortest possible, knowing that the distance between the shores is 12 m at all points. a. 12 m b. 9 m c. 3m d. 10 marrow_forwardTwo cars, one going due West at the rate of 100 km/hr and the other goingNorth at the rate of 70 km/hr, are traveling toward the intersection of the tworoads.

- A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of a=3.00jm/s2 and an initial velocity of vi=5.00im/s. Find (a) the vector position of the particle at any time t, (b) the velocity of the particle at any time t, (c) the coordinates of the particle at t = 2.00 s, and (d) the speed of the particle at t = 2.00 s.arrow_forwardA prisoner, 1.80 meters in height, was discharged in consideration due to his advanced in age. In order to receive full pardon, he must run as fast as he can towards the country border 100 meters from the prisoner's position to be totally free. Unknown to the prisoner, he was not meant to be discharged alive, due to the heinous crimes he has committed. An archer with an exceptional accuracy, hidden from the prisoner, was 15 meters behind him. As soon as the prisoner started running at a rate of a = 0.012t, an arrow was released 30 seconds after the prisoner moved from rest, from a 2-meter high at an angle of 30 degrees above horizontal aiming at the middle of his body for a sure kill (neglect air resistance). a. What should be the initial velocity of the arrow if the prisoner was dead before reaching the country border?arrow_forwardThe operator of a boat wishes to cross a 5-km wide river that is flowing to the east at 10 m/s. He wants to reach the exact point on the opposite shore 15 min after starting. With what speed and in what direction should the boat travel?arrow_forward

Determine, the resultant ground velocity of the plane.arrow_forwardTwo projectiles are thrown with the same magnitude of initial velocity, one at an angle with respect to the level ground and the other at an angle 90 degrees. Both projectiles will strike the ground at the same distance from the projection point. Will both projectiles be in the air for the same period of time?arrow_forwardA shell leaves a mortar with a muzzle velocity of 150 m/s directed upward at 60° withthe horizontal.
