An airplane maintains a speed of 630 km/h relative to theair it is flying through, as it makes a trip to a city 750 km awayto the north. (a) What time interval is required for the tripif the plane flies through a headwind blowing at 35.0 km/htoward the south? (b) What time interval is required if thereis a tailwind with the same speed? (c) What time interval isrequired if there is a crosswind blowing at 35.0 km/h to theeast relative to the ground?

In a scene in an action movie, a stuntman jumps from the top of one building to the top of another building 4.00 m away. After a running start, he leaps at an angle of 15.0o with respect to the flat roof while traveling at a speed of 5.00 m/s. Will he make it to the other roof, which is 2.50 m shorter than the building he jumps from?
A student is sitting 10.0 m away from the last wagon of a movingtrain. It is moving towards the right with a speed of 4.00 m/s. Ifthe last wagon passes the end of the platform at t = 0, how faraway from the platform is the student at 5.00 s?
A man starts walking north at 4f t/s from a point P. Five minutes later a woman starts walking southat 5f t/s from a point 500f t due east of P. At what rate are the people moving apart 15m after the womanstarts walking.
If someone is riding in the back of a pickup thick and throws a softball straight backward, is it possible for the ball to fall straight down as viewed by a person standing at the side of the road? Under what condition would this occur? How would the motion of the ball appear to the person who threw it?
A helicopter flying horizontally at an altitude of 3 km is on course to pass directly over a cell tower.At the instant when the helicopter is 5 km from the tower, the distance between them is decreasingat the rate of 160 km/h. What is the helicopter’s speed at that time?
A player passes a basketball to another player who catches it atthe same level from which it was thrown. The initial speed of theball is 7.1 m>s, and it travels a distance of 4.6 m. What were (a) theinitial direction of the ball and (b) its time of flight?
A car can be braked to a stop from the autobahn-likespeed of 200 km/h in 170 m. Assuming the acceleration is constant,find its magnitude in (a) SI units and (b) in terms of g. (c) How muchtime Tb is required for the braking? Your reaction time Tr is the timeyou require to perceive an emergency, move your foot to the brake,and begin the braking. If Tr = 400 ms, then (d) what is Tb in terms ofTr, and (e) is most of the full time required to stop spent in reactingor braking? Dark sunglasses delay the visual signals sent from theeyes to the visual cortex in the brain, increasing Tr. (f) In the extremecase in which Tr is increased by 100 ms, how much farther doesthe car travel during your reaction time?
Two 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. At what rate are the cars approaching each other at the instant when thefirst car is0.3 km and the second car is 0.2 km from the intersection?
Answer the following: Since all of the particle’s acceleration is in the ________ direction, none of its acceleration is in the ______. Therefore, the particle’s speed is________.
Two trains travel in the opposite direction, leaving each of the opposite stations which call station A and station B. The train A departs at a constant speed of 150[km/h], while the train B leaves from rest with constant acceleration of 1,5[m/s]. HOW far and at what time do the two trenes intersect? Consider that the two stations are separated by a distance of 10[km].
A boat moves at a distance (in km) of S(t) = t2 - 400t where t in minutes is the time passed since the boat started moving at 6:00 AM. What is the velocity of the train at exactly 9:00 AM?
A stone is thrown from the top of a building upward at an angle of 30 degrees with respect of the horizontal, and with an intial speed of 20m/s. If the height of the building is 45 meters, how long is the stone in flight, how far does it land, and what is the speed just before impact?
