A swan on à lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. a) If the swan must reach a velocity of 5.99 m/s to take off and it accelerates from rest at an average rate of 0.33 m/s², how far will it travel before becoming airborne? b) How long does this take?

Christopher watches a stick float downstream in a river and notices that it moves 15 m [El in a time of 2.5 x 10' s.

You go watch your friend as she runs at a cross country meet. The first time she passes you, your friend runs by going due north at a speed of 4.40 m/s. You move to a different place on the course and twelve minutes after you saw her the first time, your friend runs past you again. This time she is traveling at a speed of 3.80 m/s in the direction 30.0◦ W of S. What is the direction of her average acceleration between those same two times?
You step onto a hot beach with your bare feet. A nerve impulse, generated in your foot, travels through your nervous system at an average speed of 139m/s. How much time does it take for the impulse, which travels at a distance of 1.81m, to reach your brain?

At a soccer practice, the players run sprints. They start at the goal, run 10 m toward the center of the field and then run back to the goal. Then they run 20 m toward the center of the field and back to the goal. Finally they run 30 m toward the center of the field, turn around, and run back to the goal again. One player times herself to try and beat her personal best time. She runs the first 10 m in 2.5 s and gets back to the goal in 2.8 s. Then she runs the 20-m sprint in 5.7 s and gets back to the goal in 6.7 s. She runs the final 30-m sprint in 12 s and gets back to the goal in 15 s. Define the positive direction as forward, toward the center of the field and consider what a position versus time graph of her motion would look like. Rank the sprints according to their slopes on the position versus time graph, from steepest positive slope to steepest negative slope. Rank from steepest positive slope to steepest negative slope. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

You can perform a popular trick by dropping any peso bill (Ex. 500 peso bill )lengthwise through the thumb and forefinger of a classmate. Tell your classmate to grab the peso bill as fast as possible and he/she can keep the money if he/she catches it. The length of the peso bill is 15.7 cm and the average human reaction time is about 0.20 s. Will your classmate catch the bill and keep the money?
