A student is on the roof of the SP building, 15.0 m above the ground. Your physics instructor, who is 163 cm tall, is walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 0.35 m/s. If you wish to drop an egg on your instructors head, where should the instructor be when you release the egg? Assume the egg is in free fall and air friction is “negligible”.
You are standing at the top of a cliff that has a stairstep configuration. There is a vertical drop of 6 m at your feet, then a horizontal shelf of 5 m , then another drop of 4 m to the bottom of the canyon, which has a horizontal floor. You kick a 0.44 kg rock, giving it an initial horizontal velocity that barely clears the shelf below
What initial horizontal velocity v will be required to barely clear the edge of the shelf below you? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 . Consider air friction to be negligible. Answer in units of m/s.
How far from the bottom of the second cliff will the projectile land? Answer in units of m.

- A skier traveling travelling with a magnitude of velocity v approaches a ramp that has an angle of 0. The approach to the ramp is frictionless, but there is friction on the ramp, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the skis and the ramp is uk. If the skier travels a distance d up the ramp before coming to a stop, what was their initial velocity v? Your answer for v should be in terms of d, g, uk, and 0. นarrow_forwardA piano has been pushed to the top of the ramp at the back of a moving van. The workers think it is safe, but as they walk away, it begins to roll down the ramp. Neglect the friction between the piano and the ramp. If the back of the truck is 1.5 mm above the ground and the ramp is inclined at 26 ∘∘ , how much time do the workers have to get to the piano before it reaches the bottom of the ramp?arrow_forwardLet us consider the fall of a pole vaulter as a projectile once he releases the pole. The pole has a lake of 15 8 feet and once the athlete releases the pole he will find a mattress 2 feet high, 10 feet wide and 16 feet long, which protects him in the fall. If an athlete lets go of the pole when it was 13.7 ft above the ground with a speed of 15.7 ft/s at an angle of 73 degrees. Enter the horizontal distance that the athlete will travel with the indicated conditions, add the units in the resultarrow_forward
- A small object begins a free fall from a height of 29.0 m. After 1.10 s, a second small object is launched vertically upward from the ground with an initial velocity if 37.0 m/s. At what height h above the ground will the two objects first meet? Asked to use the equation y=y0+v0yt--1/2gt^2 and assume gravity as I believe 9.8 m/s^2arrow_forwardIf a 2.0 kg weight falls 4.0 meters vertically downward from rest, how fast will it be going just before it hits the ground? Take g to be equal to 10 m/s^2 and ignore air resistance.arrow_forwardA 1 kg ball is fired from a cannon directly upwards in an airless chamber. Its initial speed is 10 m/s, and it reaches a height of 5 m before falling due to Earth's gravity. If a 2 kg ball is fired at 20 m/s directly upwards, what height will it reach before it begins falling, rounded to the nearest meter? Acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s^2arrow_forward
- In the absence of air resistance, if a ball is thrown vertically upward with a certain initial speed, on returning to its original level it will have the same speed. When air resistance is a factor, will the ball be moving faster, the same, or more slowly than its throwing speed when it gets back to the same level? Why? (Physicists often use a “principle of exaggeration” to help them analyze a problem. Consider the exaggerated case of a feather, not a ball, because the effect of air resistance on the feather is more pronounced and therefore easier to visualize.)arrow_forwardParticles 1 and 2 of equal mass are thrown vertically upwards at the same initial velocity vo in a constant gravitational field. Particle 1 is under a negligible air resistance fr = 0 while Particle 2 experiences a resistance of the form fr = mav, where m is the particle's mass, a is a positive constant, and v is the particle's velocity at any point in time. Show that the ratio (t2/t1) of the times required for the particles to reach maximum height is given by t2 avo = 1- + O t1 2g 2g where O denotes higher order terms. In the limit a → 0, your result for t2 must approach t1.arrow_forwardI need it before 30 minutes. Thank you very much! This would mean a lot!arrow_forward
- Suppose an astronaut landed on a planet where g = 19.6 m>s2. Compared to earth, would it be easier, harder, or just as easy for her to walk around? Would it be easier, harder, or just as easy for her to catch a ball that is moving horizontally at 12 m>s? (Assume that the astronaut’s spacesuit is a lightweight model that doesn’t impede her movements in any way.)arrow_forwardI need help on this question? G=10 m/s^2= 10 N/kg.arrow_forwardYou aim a rifle horizontally in a perfectly flat field while your friend holds a bullet at the same height as your rifle. You fire the rifle and your friend simply opens her hand simultaneously, allowing the bullet to drop. Your friend claims that both bullets hit the ground at the same moment. Do you agree? Justify your answer. Ignore air resistance.arrow_forward
