On a model railway layout, the front of train A (travelling due north at 10 cms) crosses a bridge just as the front of train B (travelling SW at 15 cm s) passes beneath the bridge, some 12 cm below. ASsuming both trains continue to travel in a straight line, determine: a) the position vectors of the fronts of both trains in the frame of the bridge, after 10 seconds have elapsed. b) the position vectors of the front of train B and the centre of the bridge in the frame of train A, after a further 10 seconds have elapsed. c) the speed and direction of train B and the bridge in the frame of train A.

-20. Two cyclists, Mike and Josh, simultaneously started toward each other from two towns d = 24 km apart. Josh rode at vj = 25 km/h, and Mike %3D at UM = 15 km/h. The moment they start, a fly also starts from Josh towards Mike and after reaching Mike, immediately returns towards Josh. The fly continues back and forth motion between the cyclists till the cyclists meet. Air speed of fly is UF = 30 km/h and the wind blows always towards Mike with a constant velocity u = 10 km/h. Find the total distance s flown by the fly. Sneedometer shows speed and odometer shows distance travelled, both
Joey starts riding his scooter from his apartment to campus. He thinks it would be fun to make a graph ofhis position relative to time. By a weird coincidence, the graph is perfectly modeled by the equation 3t^2 -5t + 6 He tells his friend Andie that his average velocity for the second half of his trip was 39.2 units per timeinterval, because the slope formula says to do (256 - 60)/(5 -10) Is Joey correct?
One day you go hiking at a nearby nature preserve. At first, you follow the straight, clearly marked trails. From your starting point, you travel 2.00 miles down the first trail. Then, you turn to your left by 30.0∘ to follow a second trail for 1.60 miles. Next, you turn to your right by 160∘ and follow a third trail for 2.00 miles. At this point, you are getting very tired and would like to get back as quickly as possible, but all of the available trails seem to lead you deeper into the woods. You would like to take a shortcut directly through the woods (ignoring the trails). How far should you walk, to go directly back to your starting point?

If someone is riding in the back of a pickup thick and throws a softball straight backward, is it possible for the ball to fall straight down as viewed by a person standing at the side of the road? Under what condition would this occur? How would the motion of the ball appear to the person who threw it?
