A student releases a marble from the top of a 190 cm ramp. The marble increases speed steadily and reaches the bottom of the ramp in 2.9s. What is the magnitude of the velocity and what is the marble's final speed?
Coasting due West on your bicycle at 9.6 m/s, you encounter a sandy patch of road 6.7m across. When you leave the sandy patch your speed has been reduced by 3.8m/s to 5.8 m/s.
Assuming the sand causes a constant acceleration, what was the bicycle’s acceleration in the sandy patch? Give both the magnitude and direction.
How long did it take to cross the sandy patch?
Suppose you enter the sandy patch with a speed of only 7.6 m/s. Is your final speed in this case 3.4m/s, more than 3.4m/s, or less than 3.4 m/s? Explain.
A ball starts from rest and accelerates at 0.5 m/s² while moving down on a 9 m long inclined plane.
10)
When the ball reaches the bottom of this plane, it continues moving with constant velocity along 12 m long horizontal
path. Then, it moves up the second inclined surface for 10s and it stops.
a) What is the speed of the ball at the bottom of the first inclined plane?
b) How long does it take for the ball to reach the bottom of the second
inclined plane?
c) What is the acceleration in the second inclined plane?
d) What is the speed of the ball at the point 8 m away from the bottom of
the second inclined plane?
Answers: a) v = 3 m/s, b) t = 10 s, c) a = -0.3 m/s² (parallel to that surface and in the downward direction), d) v =2.05

- 1. You are on a different planet, and you have been tasked to determine the acceleration of gravity on this rather small planet. You climb a top a cliff that is 100.0 m high. You have two balls, and decided to drop one of them from the edge of this cliff. The ball’s final velocity as it hits the ground is 20.0 m/s. Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on this planet and the time it takes for that ball to reach the ground.a. You then roll the other ball at 10.0 m/s horizontally off the cliff. How far does this ball travel horizontally before it hits the ground?2. Now you are back on Earth. You climb up a top a 100.0 m high cliff and drop a similar ball from the edge of this cliff.
