A skydiver is falling straight down, along the negative y direction. (à) During the initial part (part a of the figure) of the fall, her speed increases from 19.0 m/s to 28.0 m/s in 1.50 s, as in parta of the figure. (b) Later (part b of the figure), her parachute opens, and her speed decreases from 46.0 m/s to 28.0 m/s in 11.0 s, as in part bof the drawing. In both instances (parts a and b of the figure) determine the magnitude and direction (include sign) of her average acceleration. (a)

A ball is suspended from a light 1.3 m string . The string makes an angle of 24 degrees with the vertical. The ball is then kicked up and to the right such that the string remains taut the entire time the ball swings upwards. This kick gives the ball an initial velocity of 1.1m/s. What will be the speed, in meters per second, of the ball when it reaches its lowest point (θ = 0)? What will be the maximum angle, in degrees, the string will make with the vertical?
An elevator is initially moving upward at a speed of 13 m/s. The elevator experiences a constant downward acceleration of magnitude 3.5 m/s2 for 2.5 s.
