A truck, stolen by Dora the Explorer is initially stopped 10.0 m from the base of a building. Peppa pig is 22.0 m above the ground on the balcony of her office building. The truck begins to accelerate towards the building. One second after the truck moves, Peppa pig jumps off the balcony. Peppa pig, in an attempt to stop Dora the Explorer, times her fall perfectly and lands on the truck, which is 3.0 meters above the ground. What was the acceleration of the truck and its final velocity (assume constant acceleration)?

A sailor is enjoying a nice day on his sailboat, sailing west with the wind at constant velocity. At one point the sailor spots an anchored buoy some distance to the east of the boat, and turns on his motor to head towards it. The boat kept gliding to the west for some distance before turning around and heading eastward. The boat was traveling initially with velocity v = -6.0i m/s and it took the the boat 2.0 s to turn around. What is the velocity of the boat, 5.0 s after the motor is turned on? The coordinate system is set up such that the +i direction is East. Pick the correct answer O +3.0î m/s O -9.0i m/s O -3.0î m/s o +9.0å m/s o +2.0i m/s
Henrietta is going off to her physics class, jogging down the sidewalk at a speed of 3.45 m/s. Her husband Bruce suddenly realizes that she left in such a hurry that she forgot her lunch of bagels, so he runs to the window of their apartment, which is a height 36.4 m above the street level and directly above the sidewalk, to throw them to her. Bruce throws them horizontally at a time 7.00 s after Henrietta has passed below the window, and she catches them on the run. You can ignore air resistance. With what initial speed must Bruce throw the bagels so Henrietta can catch them just before they hit the ground? Where is Henrietta when she catches the bagels?

Sam is walking along a trail when he comes to the bottom of a steep cliff. Before trying to climb up it, he wonders how high it is. Jake happens to have a bow and arrow with him, and he knows it is able to launch an arrow with a maximum speed of 60.0 m/s. After shooting the arrow straight up with the bow fully extended, he hears it hit the ground at the top of the cliff 7.00 s after he launches it. How high is the cliff?
A California Condor is approaching its nest with a large chunk of carrion in its beak. As it approaches, it makes an upward swoop, achieving a momentary upward velocity of 12.8 m/s when the carrion falls from its mouth, hitting a cliff outcropping 32.1 m below. Determine the speed of the carrion upon hitting the outcropping.
