A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 20.5 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.351 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 33.2 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.

A fly ball is hit to the outfield during a baseball game. Let’s neglect the effects of air resistance on the ball. The motion of the ball is animated in the simulation (linked below). The animation assumes that the ball’s initial location on the y axis is y0 = 1 m, and the ball's initial velocity has components v0x = 20 m/s and v0y = 20 m/s. What is the initial angle (in degrees) of the baseball's velocity? (Write only the numerical value of the answer and exclude the unit) Blank 1
Recently a space x launch vehicle was coasting at a constant velocity of 15m/s in the + y direction relative to a space station . The pilot of the vehicle fired a special RCS thruster which causes it to accelerate at 8m/s^2 in the +x direction . After 9.1 s the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster . After RCS thruster is turned off find the magnitude of the vehicles velocity in +x direction.

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 17.0 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.291 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 54.3 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
On one occasion during the current mission, James Bond throws a stone from the top of a building upward at an angle of 30.0° to the horizontal with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s as shown in the figure. The height from which the stone is thrown is 45.0 m above the ground. Mr. Bond's friend, Dr. Madeleine Swann, is going to compute the speed of the stone at the time instant t = 3.00 s.

A Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II jet takes off from an aircraft carrier with a runway length of 107 m and a takeoff speed 77 m/s at the end of the runway. Jets are catapulted into airspace from the deck of an aircraft carrier with two sources of propulsion: the jet propulsion and the catapult. At the point of leaving the deck of the aircraft carrier, the F-35's acceleration decreases to a constant acceleration of 4.8 m/s2 at 23° with respect to the horizontal. (Assume that the F-35's initial direction along the deck of the aircraft carrier is the +x-direction and that the +y-direction is up.) What is its velocity and speed at this time?
