My sable-colored Siberian husky, Samba, loves to run after huge objects (for instance, tree branches). I decide to chunk a 6 foot long stick for her to run after and bring back to me. I throw the stick at 1.45 ft/s in 2.14 s. In feet and to two decimal places, how far away did the stick land?

And thanks to the good folks of Calaveras County, California, who have a jumping frog contest every year in honor of a Mark Twain story, we have very good data as to just how far a determined frog can jump. The current record holder is Rosie the Ribeter, a bullfrog that made a leap of 2.2 m from a standing start. This compares favorably with the world record for a human, which is a mere 3.7 m. Typical data for a serious leap by a bullfrog look like this: The frog goes into a crouch, then rapidly extends its legs by 15 cm as it pushes off, leaving the ground at an angle of 30° to the horizontal. It’s in the air for 0.49 s before landing at the same height from which it took off. Given this leap, what is the acceleration while the frog is pushing off? How far does the frog jump?arrow_forward
