- In the children's book Nuts to You, a young squirrel named Jed is snatched up by a hawk. While in the air Jed manages to go limp, slip through the hawk's talons and fall to the forest floor. The hawk travels horizontally at a speed of 4.86m/s . (You may neglect any effects of air resistance as you answer the following questions). One second after being released, what is the y-component of Jed's velocity?arrow_forwardNatalia throws a ball straight up. The ball leaves the her hand with a speed of 12.0 m/s when the hand is 1.70 m above the ground. How long is the ball in the air before it hits the ground? (She moves her hand out of the way.)arrow_forwardA hot air balloon has just lifted off and is rising at a constant rate of 2.0 m/s. Suddenly one of the passengers realizes she has left her camera on the ground. A friend picks it up and tosses it straight upward with an initial speed of 12 m/s. If the passenger is 2.5 m above her friend when the camera is tossed, how high is she above her friend when the camera reaches he ?arrow_forward
- I had a dream last night that I was chased by my teddy bear. In my dream, I was sleepwalking at a constant velocity of 60ft/sec. At exactly 4:00 am I noticed my teddy bear standing 1000 feet behind me. At that instant I began to accelerate at 10 ft/sec/sec and the teddy bear began to accerlate after me at 12 ft/sec/sec. At the moment the bear caught up to me, I woke from my dream in a cold sweat. To the nearest second, What time was this?arrow_forwardSam is walking along a trail when he comes to the bottom of a steep cliff. Before trying to climb up it, he wonders how high it is. Jake happens to have a bow and arrow with him, and he knows it is able to launch an arrow with a maximum speed of 60.0 m/s. After shooting the arrow straight up with the bow fully extended, he hears it hit the ground at the top of the cliff 7.00 s after he launches it. How high is the cliff?arrow_forwardDong and Rigo are playing their slingshot, both of them shot a pebble vertically upward. Rigo shot after Dong, but while the Dong’s pebble is still on its way up. The initial speeds are such that both pebbles reach their maximum height at the same instant, although these heights are different. Suppose that the initial speed of the Dong’s pebble is 40.6 m/s and that Rigo’s pebble is shot 1.25s after Dong’s, determined the initial velocity of the Rigo’s pebble.arrow_forward
- A playful cat sees a mouse run past him with a constant velocity of 2 m/s. One second after the mouse passes the cat, the cat jumps after the mouse at an angle of 30 degrees and some unknown initial velocity. Being a naturally-talented cat, he lands perfectly right where the mouse ends up (the mouse didn't think to turn or change his speed). How much time does the cat spend in the air?arrow_forwardA shinobi threw a kunai due east at a velocity of 130 m/s relative to the shinobi. The shinobi was sprinting due east at 7.23 m/s relative to ground. A samurai used his bow to shoot a directly at an interception path. The arrow is due west. The samurai was stationary when the arrow was released. The velocity of the arrow due the direction of the kuna is 124 m/s relative to the samurai. The samurai and the shinobi were 147 meters away from each other. a. What is the velocity of the kuna relative to the arrow in kph? b. What is the time it will take for the kunai and arrow to be in contact? c. What is the distance of the contact point from the samurai?arrow_forwardA rocket is fired at a speed of 86.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 7.92- Im high wall, which is located 16.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall?

- A hot air balloon is rising straight up with a speed of 4.67 m/s. A ballast bag is released from rest relative to the balloon when it is 6.36 m above the ground. How much time elapses before the ballast bag hits the ground ?arrow_forwardA rocket is fired at a speed of 83.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 45.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 12.5-m high wall, which is located 21.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall? Number i Unitsarrow_forward47. Review Conceptual Example 14 before attempting this problem. Two identical pellet guns are fired simultaneously from the edge of a cliff. These guns impart an initial speed of 30.0 m/s to each pellet. Gun A is fired straight upward, with the pellet going up and then falling back down, eventually hitting the ground beneath the cliff. Gun B is fired straight downward. In the absence of air resistance, how long after pellet B hits the ground does pellet A hit the ground?arrow_forward
