- An apple falls from a tree. It hits the ground at a speed of about 5.0m/s5.0m/s. What is the approximate height of the tree? 10.0 m 2.4 m 2.5 m 1.3 mAt a stop light, a truck traveling at 15 m/s passes a car as it starts from rest. The truck travels at constant velocity and the car accelerates at 3 m/s2. How much time does the car take to catch up to the truck? Group of answer choices 10 s 25 s 15 s 20 s 5 sAt t=0, a particle starts with an initial velocity of 10 i m/s and accelerates uniformly at (-2.0 i +4.0 J) m/s^2. What is the speed of particle at t=5s? 1- 32m/s 2- 30 m/s 3- 28 m/s 4- 20 m/s 5- 10 m/s
- My mutt dog who seems to be a mix of pug, schnauzer, and dachshund, Boomer, likes to eat worms. He spots a juicy one in the grass and takes off from our porch at 5.22 m/s. When he reaches the worm, 8.16 m from our porch, he determines it's not up to his dog standards and decides to let it live another day. How long did it take Boomer to reach the worm, to two decimal places?A single-engine air plain starts its engine at one end of the runway. It accelerates at a constant rate and takes off at 38 m/s after 20 seconds on the runway, just as it is running out of runway. How long is the runway? Your Answer:A speeder traveling at 41 m/s passes a motorcycle policeman at rest at the side of the road. The policeman accelerates at 4.77 m/s2. To the nearest tenth of a second how long does it take the policeman to catch the speeder?
