Learning Goal: To understand the meaning and possible applications of the work-energy theorem Part A In this problem, you will use your prior knowledge to derive one of the most important relationships in mechanics: the work-energy theorem. We will start with a special case: a particle of mass m moving in the x direction at constant acceleration a. During a certain interval of time, the particle accelerates from vị to vf , undergoing displacement s given by s = xf - . Find the acceleration a of the particle. Express the acceleration in terms of vi, vf, and s. • View Available Hint(s) a =

A frog jumps at an angle 30° above the horizontal. The origin of the coordinate system is at the point where the frog leaves the ground. Complete the attached table by drawing check marks in the cells that correctly connect the quantities in the first column that describe the motion of the frog and the descriptions of what is happening to these quantities while the frog is moving. For each quantity, explain why your choice is correct. Consider the frog as a point-like object and assume that the resistive force exerted by the air is negligible.
