The car in Figure shown moves in a straight line such that for a short time its velocity is defined by v = (3t2 +
2t) m/s, where t is in seconds. Determine
Two cars A and B have a velocity of 25m/s in the same direction. Car A is 73.5m behind car B when the brakes
are applied to car B, causing it to decelerate at a constant rate of 3m/s2
a. In what time will A overtake B?
b. How far will car A travel?
c. How far will car B travel?
Answer: t = 7s, Xa = 175m, Xb = 101.5m
A train moving with constant acceleration travels at 7.32 m/s after the 10th sec of its motion and 5.49 m/s
during the 12th sec of its motion.
A ball is dropped from the top of a tower 25 m high at the same instant that a second ball is thrown upward
from the ground with an initial velocity of 12 m/s.
A stone was dropped from a balloon which is ascending at a rate of 6m/s when the
stone was 70m above the ground
A stone is dropped down a well and 5 sec later, the sounds of the splash is heard. If the
velocity of sound is 340 m/s,
Answer: H = 107.64m

Car A starts from rest at t = 0 and travels along a straight road with a constant acceleration of 1.83m/s2 until
it reaches a speed of 24m/s. Afterwards it maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, car B located 1830m down
the road is traveling towards A at a constant speed of 18.3m/s. Determine the distance traveled by car A
when they pass each other.
Answer: Xa = 970m
A bullet is fired at an initial velocity of 150 m/s and an angle of 56° at the top of a 120 m tall building.
Neglecting air resistance, determine the following:

b. The time for the bullet to hit the ground.
c. The velocity with which the bullet will hit the ground.
Answer: z=3.31 m

Answer
A ball, on the frictionless table 1000m high rolling with a horizontal velocity V0 drops to a frictionless floor.
Knowing that the ball hits the floor a distance 150mm from the edge of the table and that coefficient of
restitution is 0.85, determine
1. Velocity V0,
2. The maximum height of the ball after the first bounce,
3. The total horizontal distance on the 2nd bounce
The three identical 2-kg blocks slide on the horizontal surface with negligible friction. Initially A is moving to
the right at 3 m/s while B and C are at rest. Assuming all
collisions to be plastic, determine the velocities of the block A
after
1. The first collision; and
2. The second collision.
The speed of the car at the base of a 10m hill is 54 km/h. Assuming, that
the driver keeps her foot off the brake and accelerator pedals, what will
be the speed of the car at the top of the hill?
The man slides the 100-kg crate across the floor by pulling with a
constant force of 200 N. If the crate was initially at rest, how far will the
crate move before its speed is 1 m/s? The coefficient of kinetic friction
between the crate and the floor is 0.18.
Answer: x = 2.1 m
