A large boulder is ejected vertically upward from a volcano withan initial speed of 40.0 m/s. Ignore air resistance. When is the velocity of the boulder zero?
A missile silo is used to launch military rockets vertically upward out of the silo, giving the rocket an initial speed of 79.6 m/s at ground level. As the rocket clears the silo, the engines fire, and the rocket accelerates upward at 3.90 m/s2 until it reaches an altitude of 1,080 m. At that point its engines fail, and the rocket goes into free fall, with an acceleration of -9.80 m/s². (You will need to consider the motion while the engine is operating and the free-fall motion separately. Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.) (a) Determine the velocity of the rocket (in m/s) at the end of the engine burn time and also the burn time (in s). (For the velocity, indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) velocity at end of engine V = 92.22 Check your kinematic equation relating vo, V1, ay, and AYo → 1 (where velocity of rocket as it clears the silo, v, = velocity of the rocket at…

A skydiver is falling straight down, along the negative y direction. (a) During the initial part (part a of the figure) of the fall, her speed increases from 18.0 m/s to 29.0 m/s in 1.50 s, as in part a of the figure. (b) Later (part b of the figure), her parachute opens, and her speed decreases from 49.0 m/s to 28.0 m/s in 11.0 s, as in part b of the drawing. In both instances (parts a and b of the figure) determine the magnitude and direction (include sign) of her average acceleration. (a)

To celebrate her good performance on a physics test, Alice decides to break out a bottle of champagne. In order to avoid property damage, she takes the bottle outside to uncork it. The cork pops off the champagne bottle with a velocity of 12.0 m/s at an angle of 15° relative to the vertical. When the cork is released, Alice is holding the bottle such that the cork is 1.80 m above the ground. How far does Alice have to walk to retrieve the cork?
A 0.2 kg rock is projected from the edge of the top of a building with an initial velocity of 7.56 m/s at an angle 58° above the horizontal. Due to gravity, the rock strikes the ground at a horizontal distance of 10 m from the base of the building. Assume: The ground is level and that the side of the building is vertical. The accelera- tion of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. 58 h 10 m How tall, h, is the building? Answer in units of m. 7.56 m/s Building

In the winter sport of bobsledding, athletes push their sled along a horizontal ice surface and then hop on the sled as it starts to careen down the steeply sloped track. In one event, the sled reaches a top speed of 9.2 m/sm/s before starting down the initial part of the track, which is sloped downward at an angle of 5.0 degrees. What is the sled's speed after it has traveled the first 140 m?
