An airplane is flying north. It makes a gradual 180° turn (at any instant, the turning angle is less than 900) at constant speed of 496.2 km/h, changing its direction of travel from north through east to south in 35.6 s. The centripetal acceleration of the plane for this turn in m/s2 is: Answer:
A bullet is fired from a gun at angle of 50 degrees from the horizontal. The muzzle velocity of the bullet is 330 meters per sec. Compute the radius of the curve at the point where the bullet traveled 20 meters horizontally from the origin The total acceleration of a car moving along a flat curve is 5 meters per sec^2. If the car is traveling at constant speed of 60 km per hour, what is the arc length of the curve if the central angle of the curve is 60 degrees?

At a football game, imagine the line of scrimmage is the y-axis. A player, starting at the y-axis, runs 8.50 yards, back (in the −x-direction), then 15.0 yards parallel to the y-axis (in the −y-direction). He then throws the football straight downfield 55.0 yards in a direction perpendicular to the y-axis (in the +x-direction). What is the magnitude of the displacement (in yards) of the ball? yards (b) What if? The receiver that catches the football travels 64.0 additional yards at an angle of 45.0° counterclockwise from the +x-axis away from the quarterback's position and scores a touchdown. What is the magnitude of the football's total displacement (in yards) from where the quarterback took the ball to the end of the receiver's run?
