A rocket is fired vertically upward from the ground. The distance s in feet that the rocket travels from the ground after t seconds isgiven by s(t) = -16 t² + 560 t. Apply calculus to find the velocity of the rocket 3 seconds after being fired.Two objects move on a horizontal frictionless surface along the same line in the same direction which we shall refer to as the forwarddirection. The trailing object of mass has a velocity of forward. The leading object of mass has a velocity of forward. The trailing objectcatches up with the leading object and the two objects experience a completely inelastic collision. By using the rule of conservation ofMomentum, calculate is the final velocity of each of the two objects?

A car is traveling with a constant speed along a road that has a form of a square. The car starts at the beginning of one side of the square and covers two and a half sides. The speed of the car is 50 miles / hour. What is its average velocity? Please provide step by step & clear solution!
A jetliner, traveling northward, is landing with a speed of 60.4 m/s. Once the jet touches down, it has 732 m of runway in which to reduce its speed to 6.88 m/s. Compute the average acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the plane during landing (take the direction of the plane's motion as positive).
The acceleration of a particle is a constant. At t=0 the velocity of the particle is (14.91 + 18.4ĵ) m/s. At t = 4.6 s the velocity is 11.4j m/s. (Use the following as necessary: t. Do not include units in your answers.) (a) What is the particle's acceleration (in m/s²)? = î+ 18.4 v(t) = (b) How do the position (in m) and velocity (in m/s) vary with time? Assume the particle is initially at the origin. r(t) = î+ X Î- i) m/s m/s
If an object is shot upward with an initial velocity, v 0, in feet per second (ft/s), the velocity, v, in ft/s is given by the formula v= v0 −32t, where t is time in seconds. Find the initial velocity of an object if the velocity after 2 seconds is 28ft/s.
A rocket is shot straight up in the air from the ground at a rate of 46 feet per second. The rocket is tracked by a rangefinder that is 427 feet from the launch pad. Let d represent the distance from the rocket to the rangefinder and t represent the time, in seconds, since "blastoff". Express d as a function of t.
