equal?

52- (Use figure 4.31 Pag. 144) Given that vector A + vector B =0 a) How does the
magnitude of vector B compare with the magnitude of vector A? b) How does the
direction of vector B compare with the direction of vector A?

6- Analyze. You and your dog go for a walk to a nearby park. On the way your dog
takes many short side trips to chase squirrels, examine fire hydrants, and so on.
34 A) When you arrive at the park, do you and your dog have the same displacement?
Explain.
B) Have you and your dog traveled the same distance? Explain.
20- Friends tell you that on a recent trip their average velocity was +20 m/s. Is it
possible that at any time during the trip their velocity was –20 m/s? Explain, and give
an example to justify your answer.
40- What type of information can be obtained from the position-time equation of
motion?
41- A straight line on a position-time graph represents motion with constant velocity.
What does the slope of the line represent? What does the Y intercept of the line
represent?
45- Two bumper cars move in a straight line with the following equations of motion:
31- The position-time graphs in figure 2.12 pag 57. Show four different motions,
labeled A, B, C, and D.
B) Rank these motions in order of increasing velocity, from most negative to most
positive
Read the text “Robot Walking” of the page 70 and answer the following questions.
121- What was the displacement of the robot between the times t= 2 sec and t= 8
sec

A) A plot shows two position-time graphs, one a straight line and one a parabola.
Which graph corresponds to an object with constant acceleration?
B) The acceleration of a car changes from positive to negative. How does this affect
the shape of the car´s position-time graph?
C) For each position-time graph in Figure 3.21 explain how the motion of object A
and object B differ.

65- The brakes on a train create a constant deceleration regardless of how fast it´s
moving. If the speed of the train is doubled, how does this affect the time required for
it to come to a stop?
66- If the velocity of a ball is zero at a given instant of time, can its acceleration at
that instant be positive? Give an example if your answer is yes; explain why not if
your answer is no.
67- If the velocity of a ball is positive, can its acceleration be negative? Give an
example if your answer is yes; explain why not if your answer is no.
80- Truck 1 accelerates from 5 m/s to 10 m/s in 10 min. Truck 2 accelerates from
15m/s to 20m/s in 10 m. Is the acceleration of the truck 1 greater than less than, or
equal to the acceleration of truck 2? Explain.
81- An object moves with a constant acceleration. What is the shape of its velocity-
time graph? Explain.
