Victoria is standing on a boat, during a perfectly calm day. Initially, both are not moving. Then Victoria walks from one end of the boat to the other. Take the initial time to be before she walks and the final while still walking.
b) Compare the final speed of the boat with Victoria’s final speed. Are they the same or different? Why?
Problem 2: Skating on ice (adapted from MasteringPhysics) A speed skater moving across fric-
tionless ice at 8 m/s hits a 5m wide patch of rough ice. She slows steadily, then continues on at 6
m/s.

a) What is her acceleration on the rough ice? In the space below write your answer, please show all
the steps of your work, not just the final answer.
Free Fall. Allan is on the ground YA,0 = 0 [m], and Bob is directly above him at YB,0 = 172.[m]. Bob drops a cannonball at the same time Allan shoots a similar cannonball directly upward. Allan’s cannonball was launched with enough speed so that both cannonballs will collide just as Allan’s cannonball reached its maximum height.
What is the initial speed of Allan's cannonball ?

- An experimentalist in a laboratory finds that a particle has a helical path. The position of this particle in the laboratory frame is given by r(t)=Rcost+Rsint+vztk where R, vz, and are constants. A moving frame has velocity (vM)L=vzk relative to the laboratory frame. a. What is the path of the particle in the moving frame? b.

Figure P4.72A is the motion diagram representing what this observer sees. To better reveal the changing distance between runner and walker, five observations (A through E) are shown on five separate lines in Figure P4.72B. To the observer on the bench, both the runner and the walker move to the right, and the gap between them widens. Draw the motion diagram of the runner from the reference frame of the walker.
