A flower pot is knocked off a window ledge from a height d = 22.0 m above the sidewalk as shown in the figure below. It falls toward an unsuspecting man of height h = 1.79 m who is standing below. Assume the man requires a time interval of At = 0.300 s to respond to the warning. How close to the sidewalk can the flower pot fall before it is too late for a warning shouted from the balcony to reach the man in time? 13.50 Try approaching the problem in terms of the time at which the shout must occur and then use this to determine the distance. m Need Help?

You’re trying to find your classroom in the labyrinth that is Gilman Hall, walking through the halls at an average pace of 1.4 m/s. You look up from your phone displaying the room number to see that a group of students is suddenly standing in the middle of the hallway 1.8 meters away!

Sophia is cruising at 28.0 m/s down Lake Avenue and through the forest preserve. She notices a deer jump into the road at a location 62.0 m in front of her. Ima first reacts to the event, then slams on her brakes and decelerates at -8.10 m/s2, and ultimately stops a picometer in front of the frozen deer. What is Ima's reaction time? (i.e., how long did it take Sophia to react to the event prior to decelerating?
A cheetah spots a Thomson's gazelle, its preferred prey, and leaps into action, quickly accelerating to its top speed of 30 m/sm/s, the highest of any land animal. However, a cheetah can maintain this extreme speed for only 15 ss before having to let up. The cheetah is 270 mm from the gazelle as it reaches top speed, and the gazelle sees the cheetah at just this instant. With negligible reaction time, the gazelle heads directly away from the cheetah, accelerating at 4.6 m/s2m/s2 for 5.0 ss, then running at constant speed. By what distance is the gazelle in front when the cheetah gives up?

A worker drops a can of paint from the top of his ladder 3.5 m tall .What is the velocity of the can of paint as it strikes the ground? Luckily the can of paint was not open. In order for it not to open and splatter on the ground the painter co-worker must have reacted quickly to catch the can of paint. How much time did the painter's co-workers have in order to catch the can of paint before it fell to the ground?
