The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.24 N down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 17.0 m/s
by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line for a time interval of 182 ms. The ball starts from rest.
(a) Through what distance does it move before its release?
1.59
Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in
your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m
(b) What are the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the ball? (Enter your magnitude to at
least one decimal place.)
46.637
Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100%. N
magnitude
6.141
Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have
a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to

You're driving along at 25m/s with your aunt's valuable antiques in the back of your pickup truck
when suddenly you see a giant hole in the road 55 m ahead of you. Fortunately, your foot is
right beside the brake and your reaction time is zero! If the coefficients of friction are μs =0.6
and uk =0.3, how much time does it take you to stop if you don't want the antiques to slide and
be damaged?
A ball of mass 0.3 kg, initially at rest, is kicked directly toward a fence from a point 20 m away, as shown below. The velocity of the ball as it leaves the kicker’s foot is 17 m/s at angle of 47 ◦ above the horizontal. The top of the fence is 6 m high. The ball hits nothing while in flight and air resistance is negligible. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 (meters/seconds/squared).
1) How far above the top of fence will the ball pass? Consider the diameter of the ball to be negligible. Answer in units of m.
2) What is the vertical component of the velocity when the ball reaches the plane of the fence? Answer in units of m/s.
