At UPS, a sorting line is where boxes move from a horizontal belt to a stainless steel ramp then slide down the ramp to a bumper stopper where a person moves them to one of several conveyors depending on the destination. The boxes are moving at 1.2 m/s when entering the slide, which is 3 meters long and inclined at 20° degrees. How fast are the boxes moving when they hit the bumper?

A ball is released from rest from the top of the empire state building. Use g=9.8 m/sec^2 and ignore air resistance. What is the speed of the ball 1 second after it is released? 3 seconds?
A worker at the top of a 390-m-tall television transmitting tower in North Dakota accidentally drops a heavy tool. If air resistance is negligible, how fast (in m/s) is the tool going just before it hits the ground?
Emily throws a soccer ball out of her dorm window to Allison, who is waiting below to catch it. Emily throws the ball at an angle of 30° below horizontal with a speed of 12 m/s, and Allison catches it 2.5 s later. How far from the base of the dorm does Allison stand to catch the ball, in meters? Use g = 10.0 m/s2.
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?

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 are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building Before the state legislature votes on funding for the project, they would like you to prepare a report on the benefits of upgrading the elevators. One of the numbers that they have requested is the time it will take the elevator to go from the ground floor to the 102nd floor observatory. They are unlikely to approve the project unless the new elevators make the trip much faster than the old elevators. If state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate more than 2.40 m/s² or travel faster than 11.3 m/s, what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor? minimum travel time:
