A stone accidentally falls from rest from the edge of a 35-m-high building. When the stone is 14m above the ground, a man, 2m tall, looks up and notices that the stone is directly above him. Determine the time (in sec),at most, the man has to get out of the way.0 the answer must be 3 decimal places.
A girl on a bicycle takes 12.2 s to ride half way around a circular track of radius 20.0 m (see the figure below). (a)What is the girl's average speed (in m/s)? (b) What is the magnitude of her average velocity (in m/s)?
At time t = 0 a particle at the origin of an xyz-coordinate system has a velocity vector of Vo =i+ 12j - k. The acceleration function of the particle is a(t) = 16ti+j+ (cos 2t)k. Find the speed of the particle at time t = 1. Round your answer to two decimal places. Speed =
You throw a tennis ball straight up. It takes 7.0 seconds to go up and then return to your hand. How fast did you throw the ball?
As you are driving to school one day, you pass a construction site of a new building and you stop to watch for a few minutes. A crane is lifting a batch of bricks on a pallet to an upper floor of the building. Suddenly a brick falls off the rising pallet. You measure the time it takes for the brick to hit the ground and you find it to be 2.5 seconds. The crane has height markings. You saw the brick fell off the pallet at a height of 30.7 meters above the ground. A falling brick can be dangerous, and you wonder how fast the brick was moving when it hit the ground. Since you are taking physics, you quickly calculate the answer.
A girl on a bicycle takes 13.6 s to ride half way around a circular track of radius 12.5 m (see the figure below). (a) What is the girl's average speed (in m/s)? m/s (b) What is the magnitude of her average velocity (in m/s)? m/s
QUESTION 4 Supply all missing information with the correct numerical values. Do not include the units. Round off all answers to two decimal places. Do not forget the negative sign (-) if needed. A cannon ball is fired with an initial speed of 123 m/s at angle of 60 degrees from the horizontal. Express the initial velocity as a linear combination of its unit vector components. Vo = ( m/s) m/s) At the maximum height, the speed of the cannon ball is v = m/s and the magnitude of its acceleration is a = m/s?. S. The time needed to reach maximum height is t = m. The maximum height reached by the cannon ball is H =
Q2. A drone is used to spray pesticide in a farm. It covers (d1=30 m) towards south. Then it flies (d2=40 m) in a direction 350 east of south, then by changing its direction it covers a distance of (d3=50m) in the direction 650 east of north and finally it covers a displacement (d4=65m) in a direction of 300 south of west. Calculate total displacement (d) covered by the drone and its direction.
