A basketball player drops a 0.5 kg basketball vertically so that it is traveling at 5.0 m/s when it reaches the floor. The ball rebounds upward at a speed of 3.2 m/s. The ball is in contact with the ground for a time of 10 ms. Draw a sketch of the situation, labeling all of the physical quantities given in the problem. Identify your system in the sketch. Make sure all relevant moments in time are shown in your sketch.

A firecracker moves vertically upward and after reaching the highest point in its vertical trajectory, it starts falling down. After it falls down by 17.7 meters in air it cracks into two identical pieces. One of the pieces shoots off horizontally with 11.8 m/s speed. What would be the magnitude of the velocity of the other piece right after they split? Enter your answer in m/s. On your paper, show both your calculation for the magnitude and also the direction of the velocity vector of the second piece. Show your work in detail including your physics- based reasoning.
Hewey just received his new phone case from Amazon. Cam claims that HIS phone case is more durable. Hewey and Cam stand on top of two desks and they both hold their phones 3 m above the ground. Hewey drops his phone straight down. At the exact same moment his phone is dropped, Cam throws his phone across the room at 2 m/s. Which phone will strike the ground first? You must explain/justify your answer.
I am doing a free-fall experiment for Physics and I need to make a velocity vs. time graph using the average value of the final velocity. Do you know how I would be able to find the values for the velocity vs. time graph? The average value of the final velocity is 6.21954 m/s. It is question #9.
A 5.0-kilogram grenade lying motionless on the ground explodes into three pieces. (It's not a very sophisticated grenade.) A 2.0-kilogram piece flies off at 18 meters per second and 110 degrees.

A 54.0-g Super Ball traveling at 27.5 m/s bounces off a brick wall and rebounds at 18.0 m/s. A high-speed camera records this event. If the ball is in contact with the wall for 3.15 ms, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during this time interval?
A hammer of mass m = 0.455 kg is moving horizontally at a velocity of v = 6.5 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail a distance Δx = 0.95 cm into a board. a.)

Classes are canceled due to snow, so you take advantage of the extra time to conduct some physics experiments. You fasten a large toy rocket to the back of a sled and take the modified sled to a large, flat, snowy field. You ignite the rocket and observe that the sled accelerates from rest in the forward direction at a rate of 14.5 m/s? for a time period of 3.10 s. After this time period, the rocket engine abruptly shuts off, and the sled subsequently undergoes a constant backward acceleration due to friction of 4.15 m/s2. After the rocket turns off, how much time does it take for the sled to come to a stop? time: 10.83 By the time the sled finally comes to a rest, how far has it traveled from its starting point? distance traveled: 673.35 m

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. b.)What is the tension in the rope just before he releases it? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. c.)What is the maximum tension in the rope during the swing? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

A rubber ball is shot straight up from the ground with speed vo. Simultaneously, a second rubber ball at height h directly above the first ball is dropped from rest. At what height above the ground do the balls collide? Your answer will be a symbolic expression in terms of vo, h, and g. What is the maximum value of h for which a collision occurs before the first ball falls back to the ground?
