A boat is cruising in a straight line at a constant speed of 2.5 m/sm/s when it is shifted into neutral. After coasting 11 mm the engine is engaged again, and the boat resumes cruising at the reduced constant speed of 1.5 m/s. Assuming constant acceleration while coasting, how much time did it take for the boat to coast the 11 mm?
A river flows with a uniform velocity v. A person in a motorboat travels 1.30km upstream, at which time she passes a log floating by. Always with the same throttle setting, the boater continues to travel upstream for another 51.3min and then returns downstream to her starting point, which she reaches just as the same log does. Calculate the velocity of the river.
An overhead view of part of a pinball game is shown. If the plunger imparts an initial speed of 2.0 m/s to the ball at time t = 0, determine the acceleration a of the ball (a) at time t = 0.15 s and (b) at time t = 0.28 s. At point F, the speed of the pinball has decreased by 18% from the initial value, and this decrease may be assumed to occur uniformly over the total distance traveled by the pinball. Use the values r= 130 mm and 0 = 51° A Answers: L- r (a) t = 0.15 s, (b) t = 0.28 s, a = a = -x B (i (i r D. E r ● i+ i i+ i j) m/s² j) m/s²

Problem 1: Two trucks both cover a straight distance, d = 297 m, in time t = 11.5 s. Truck A moves at a constant velocity (vA). Truck B moves at a constant acceleration (aB), starting from an initial velocity of v0B = 5.9 m/s. Assume both trucks are moving in the positive x-direction. Part (b) What is the final velocity of Truck B? Part (c) What is the acceleration of Truck B?
A particle moves on a straight line and has acceleration a(t)=36t+2. Its position at time t=0 is s(0)=3 and its velocity at time t=0 is v(0)=16. Determine what is its position at time t=10.
You are arguing over a cell phone while trailing an unmarked police car by 27.0 m. Both your car and the police car are traveling at 100 km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 2.30 s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, "I won't do that!"). At the beginning of that 2.30 s, the police officer begins emergency braking at 5.00 m/s². (a) What is the separation between the two cars when your attention finally returns? m (b) Suppose that you take another 0.400 s to realize your danger and begin braking. If you too brake at 5.00 m/s², what is your speed when you hit the police car? km/h
A particle moves along the x axis. It is initially at the position 0.330 m, moving with velocity 0.250 m/s and acceleration -0.330 m/s?. Suppose it moves with constant acceleration for 3.40 s. (a) Find the position of the particle after this time. m (b) Find its velocity at the end of this time interval. m/s We take the same particle and give it the same initial conditions as before. Instead of having a constant acceleration, it oscillates in simple harmonic motion for 3.40 s around the equilibrium position x = 0. Hint: the following problems are very sensitive to rounding, and you should keep all digits in your calculator. (c) Find the angular frequency of the oscillation. Hint: in SHM, a is proportional to x. /s (d) Find the amplitude of the oscillation. Hint: use conservation of energy. (e) Find its phase constant o, if cosine is used for the equation of motion. Hint: when taking the inverse of a trig function, there are always two angles but your calculator will tell you only one…
