In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the slippery counter for a refill. The bartender is momentarily distracted and does not see the mug, which slides off of the counter and strikes the floor 2.11 m from the base of the counter. If the height of the counter is 1.62 m high, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the mug as it left the counter? Your Answer: Answer

A cheetah is crouched 20 m to the east of a vehicle . Attime t = 0 the cheetah begins to run due east toward an antelope thatis 50 m to the east of the vehicle. During the first 2.0 s of the chase,the cheetah’s x-coordinate varies with time according to the equationx = 20 m + (5.0 m>s2)t2. Derive an expression for the cheetah’s instantaneous velocity as a function of time, and use it to find vx at t = 1.0 s and t = 2.0 s.

Recall the famous experiment of Galileo Galilei on top of the leaning tower of Pisa? If he accidentally dropped one stone 1.0 s ahead of the other, with what initial velocity (in m/s) must the second stone would have to be thrown if the two stones would hit the ground at the same time? Note: The tower is 54 m high.
An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 46.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 1.98 m/s.
