Chapter 4, Problem 8PQ
Figure P4.8 shows the motion diagram of two balls, one on the left and one on the right. Each ball starts at a point labeled i. The ball on the left is released and falls straight down. At the same time, the ball on the right is launched horizontally and follows the path shown.
a. Use the given coordinate system to write the position of points i, C, E, G, and K in component form for each ball.
b. Find the displacement of each ball from i to points C, E, G, and K.
c. Compare your answers for the two balls in part (b). What similarities do you notice?

A cheetah spots a gazelle in the distance and begins to sprint from rest, accelerating uniformly at a rate of 8.00 m/s^2 for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the cheetah sees that the gazelle has escaped to safety, so it begins to decelerate uniformly at 6.00 m/s^2 until it comes to a stop.
