- Situation 01. Samantha has a height of 1.83 meters measured from the ground surface. She then lifts a rock and throw it straight upward giving it an upward acceleration coming from rest of 35.0 m/s? for 64cm. The ball was released 2.20m above the ground. a. How high above the ground does the rock go? b. Compute the time she must get out of its way before it returns exactly at her height.arrow_forwardThe first astronaut has landed on Mars. Conducting some physics experiments, she drops a hammer from rest from a height of 2.01 m and uses a stopwatch to measure that the hammer takes 1.04 s to hit the ground. A. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on Mars. B. She then throws the hammer straight up into the Martian sky. If she comes back to her hand in 4.20 s, with what speed did she throw it?arrow_forwardb. A car's velocity as a function of time is given by V (t) = a+ Bßt² , where a = 3.00m/s and B= 0.100 m/s³. I. Calculate the average acceleration for the time interval t= 0 to t= 5.00s. Calculate the instantaneous acceleration fort=0 and t = 5.00s. II. III. Draw the Velocity - Time graph for the car's motion between t=0 and t= 5.00s. ||arrow_forward

What are the signs (positive or nega- tive) of the (a) position y, (b) velocity V. and (c) acceleration a, for the particle in Figure P2.207 FIGURE P2.20 0arrow_forwardSuppose a rock is launched from the ground straight upward (use up as the positive direction) and reaches its maximum height in a time of 3.0 s. Then the rock descends back to the ground. (To simplify your numbers, you may use |g| = 10 m/s².) Find the following: a. The maximum height reached above the ground. b. The velocity of the rock at the time t = 4.5 s.arrow_forwarda.Members of the froghopper family of insects (family Cercopoidea) can accelerate from rest to 0.84 m/s in 5.80 ms. What is the acceleration (in m/s2)? Enter the numerical part of your answer, rounded to three significant figures. b.A western honey bee (Apis mellifera) flies 3.51 m north and then 6.31 m east. What is its displacement from the starting position? Enter only the numerical part of your answer (in m) to the nearest integer.arrow_forward
- A. Suppose a planner is designing an airport for small airplanes. Such planes must reach a speed of 56 m/s before takeoff and can accelerate at 12.0 m/s2. What is the minimum length for the runway of this airport? B. How long does it take a car to travel 30.0 m if it accelerates from rest at a rate of 2.00 m/s2? C. A baseball pitcher throws a fastball with a speed of 30.0 m/s. Assume the acceleration is uniform and the distance through which the ball is accelerated is 3.50 m. What is the acceleration?arrow_forwarda. Find the velocity v(t) and acceleration a(t). b. At what value of t does v=0? c. What is the maximum height?arrow_forwardB. A heavy rock is thrown straight up with a velocity of 160 ft/ sec. The rock reaches a height of S= 160t - 16t2 ft after t sec. Find: i. How high does the rock go? ii. What are the velocity of the rock when it is 256 ft above the ground on the way up? iii. What is the acceleration of the rock at any time t? iv. When does the rock hit the ground again?arrow_forward

The car is 140 ft from the station 2 sec after passing a point which isa 92 ft from the station. Four seconds after passing the 92 ft point, it is 198 ft from the station, and 6 sec after passing this point, it is 266 ft from the station. a. What is the average velocity of the car during each 2-sec interval after passing the 92 ft point? b. What is the acceleration of the car? c.
