Consider a grey squirrel falling from a tree to the ground. Use a coordinate system in which positive is downward for this problem. a) Find the squirrel’s velocity, in meters per second, just before hitting the ground when it falls from a height of 1.3 m. Ignore air resistance. b) The squirrel softens its landing by bending its legs when it touches the ground, thereby stopping itself over a distance of 7.6 cm. Assuming a constant rate of deceleration, find the squirrel’s acceleration during this process, in meters per second squared.

1) A student drove to the university from her home and noted that the odometer reading of her car increased by 15.8 km. The trip took 25.9 min. a) What was her average speed, in meters per second? b) If the straight-line distance from her home to the university is 10.3 km in a direction 25° south of east, what was the magnitude of her average velocity in meters per second? c) If she drove back home using the same path she took out to the university and arrives 7.9 h after she first left home, what was her average speed for the entire trip, in meters per second?
need help on incorrect answers.
Speed is the magnitude of the velocity. When we say speed is constant, we mean that the magnitude of the velocity is constant. If the speed of a particle is constant can we say that it doesn't experience any acceleration?
A spider moves on a wall along the path shown in the figure. The spider's position and velocity is indicated at t; = 0 and t; = 6.00 seconds. The spider's initial velocity v; = 0.100 m/s is toward the North and final velocity vị = 0.100 m/s is toward the East.

One of the popular routes out of Toronto is towards Tokyo, Japan. An airplane model used by Air Canada for this 10345 km flight is the Boeing 787-9. It has capacity for 298 passengers. When every seat is occupied, the passengers and their luggage weigh approximately 3.41x104 kg. Approximately 6.03x104 kg of fuel has to be consumed during this one-way flight. Assuming the every seat is occupied, how much fuel in kilograms is required per passenger for the entire one-way flight? (do not include units, just the number of kilograms) Answer: Check
