In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
A woman on a bridge 104 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the river below. She drops a stone from rest in an attempt to hit the raft. The stone is released when the raft has 4.96 m more to travel before passing under the bridge. The stone hits the water 3.47 m in front of the raft. Find the speed of the raft.
A person on the top of a roof of a building (100 m) drops a ball. After 2s passed, a person who stands at the base of the same building throws a separate ball in the upward direction with a speed of 20 m/s. Assumes the two balls are traveling on the same vertical path. Will the two balls collide with each other? If so, what are their velocities as they collide with each other?
An Osprey can fly horizontally (not diving) at a maximum speed of 70.0 km/hr. The bird takes off from rest at the edge of a cliff, heading east, and accelerates at a rate of 1.21 m/s2. The osprey can decelerate at higher rate of 2.43 m/s2. The Osprey can reach top speeds of about 84 mph. When doing so, it does not flap its wings. Rather, it relies on its gravitational force to accelerate it downwards. a. Assuming that it starts from rest, and assuming that drag forces are slim, how long will it take for the osprey to reach its top speed? b. How far does it travel during this time? c. Near the top speed, drag forces become important, and in fact the terminal velocity is determined by the drag force. Assuming that the osprey's body can be modeled as a cylinder, with its cross-sectional area equal to that of a circle with radius of 10 cm, what is the coefficient of drag C for a hawk?
A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 2.70 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally lets go of the fish, and 1.80 s after the bird lets go, the fish lands in the ocean. (a) Just before reaching the ocean, what is the horizontal component of the fish's velocity in m/s? Ignore air resistance. Assume the bird is initially traveling in the positive x direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) m/s (b) Just before reaching the ocean, what is the vertical component of the fish's velocity in m/s? Ignore air resistance. Assume upward is the positive y direction and downward is the negative y direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) What is the initial y-component of velocity of the fish? What constant acceleration relation will allow you to find the final y-component of velocity? m/s (c) If the seagull's initial speed were decreased, which of the following regarding the fish's velocity upon…
A girl standing on a bridge throws a stone vertically downward with an initial velocity of 15.0 m/s into the river below. If the stone hits the water 2.00 seconds later, what is the height of the bridge above the water?
A jet plane lands at a speed of V m/s and travels at the constant speed of V m/s for the first 5 s before the brakes are applied. The brakes cause the plane to decelerate at a rate of 4.0 m/s2. Find the landing speed if the total displacement of the aircraft between touchdown on the runway and coming to rest is 4000 m.
An object is launched horizontally at a height of 30 m with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. The x-component of the initial velocity is: answer choices 20 m/s 0 m/s 15 m/s not enough information
Two cars are heading towards one another. Car A is moving with an acceleration of aA = 3 m/s2. Car B is moving with an acceleration of aB = -1 m/s2. The cars are initially at rest and separated by a distance d = 4700 m on the x-axis. Now assume that both cars start with an initial velocity. Car A's initial velocity is v0A = 14 m/s and Car B's initial velocity is vB = -14 m/s. At what time, t2 in seconds, do they meet?
A young girl standing on a bridge throws a stone with an initial velocity of 12 m/s at a downward angle of 45° to the horizontal, in an attempt to hit a block of wood floating in the river below. If the stone is thrown from a height of 20 m and it just reaches the water when the block is 13 m from the bridge, does the stone hit the block?
A hovercraft is initially at rest but floating above land. The hovercraft has two horizontal thrusters. One provides acceleration of aNORTH= 5.15 m/s2 (NORTH). The second one provides an acceleration of aEAST= 4.75 m/s2 (EAST). If the north thruster fires for 7.33 seconds and the east thruster fires for 4.87 seconds, what is the velocity of the hovercraft after both thrusters fired? Air resistance doesn't have an effect.
A gannet is a seabird that fishes by diving from a great height. If a gannet hits the water at 32 m/s , what height did it dive from? Assume that the gannet was motionless before starting its dive.
