Hanamichi Sakuragi finishes the game strong as he jumps up straight and slams-dunk the ball in the final battle between the Shohoku and Ryonan. To do this, Sakuragi lowers his body by 0.450 m and then accelerates through the distance by firmly straightening his legs. Sakuragi departs the floor with just enough vertical velocity to lift him 30 inches (average length to dunk a full-sized basketball) above the floor, allowing him to dunk the ball. (a) Determine his velocity as he departs the floor. (b) Determine his acceleration while straightening his legs. He travels 0.450 m from zero to the velocity determined in the first component of the problem. (c) Determine the force he applies on the floor to do this, considering Hanamichi Sakuragi's mass of 183 lbs.

A 719-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 4.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of friction between his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2-kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 4.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?

Problem B2. A small box of mass m = 1.50 kg starts from rest and glides down a smooth, frictionless hill from a height h = 2.00 m to the base, where it meets a %3D rough plank of mass M = 5.00 kg that is resting on the frictionless horizontal ground surface. Due to the friction between the box and the plank, its speed is reduced until, at a certain moment, it begins to move together with the plank as if they were a single object. %3D M Figure B2. Problem diagram B2 a) Find the speed with which the box reaches the base of the hill.

Jason takes off from rest across level water on his jet-powered skis. The combined mass of Jason and his skis is 75 kg (the mass of the fuel is negligible). The skis have a thrust of 200 N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on water of 0.10. Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 52 s. What is Jason's top speed?

Male bighorn sheep (120 kg ) engage in head-butting contests to establish dominance. High-speed photography has shown that the impact speed is typically 6.0 m/s and that the collision, which brings both rams to a halt, lasts approximately 0.25 s . Suppose the collision force increases linearly with time until it reaches a maximum Fmax , then decreases linearly to zero at t = 0.25 s. What is Fmax?
. In the movie The Rocketeer, a teenager discovers a jet-powered backpack in an old barn. The backpack allows him to fly at incrediblespeeds. In one scene, however, he uses the backpack to rapidly accelerate an old pickup truck that is being chased by “bad guys.” Hedoes this by bracing his arms against the cab of the pickup and firing the backpack, giving the truck the acceleration of a drag racer. Isthe physics of this scene “Good,” “Bad,” or “Ugly”? Explain.
