You go watch your friend as she runs at a cross country meet. The first time she passes you, your friend runs by going due north at a speed of 4.40 m/s. You move to a different place on the course and twelve minutes after you saw her the first time, your friend runs past you again. This time she is traveling at a speed of 3.80 m/s in the direction 30.0° W of S. What is the direction of her average acceleration between those same two times?

A pilot performs an evasive maneuver by diving vertically at 310 m/s. If he can withstand an acceleration of 8.0 g without blacking out at what altitude must he begin to pull out of the dive to avoid crashing into the sea? Express your answer using two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
A ball of mass 0.3 kg, initially at rest, is kicked directly toward a fence from a point 20 m away, as shown below. The velocity of the ball as it leaves the kicker’s foot is 17 m/s at angle of 47 ◦ above the horizontal. The top of the fence is 6 m high. The ball hits nothing while in flight and air resistance is negligible. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 (meters/seconds/squared). 1) How far above the top of fence will the ball pass? Consider the diameter of the ball to be negligible. Answer in units of m. 2) What is the vertical component of the velocity when the ball reaches the plane of the fence? Answer in units of m/s.
