Test II. Solve the following problems.

 1. A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5.21 seconds for a distance of 110
m. Determine the acceleration of the car.

Given: Find:
d = 110 m t = 5.21 s v i = 0 m/s a = ??
d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2
110 m = (0 m/s)*(5.21 s)+ 0.5*(a)*(5.21 s) 2

110 m = (13.57 s 2)*a

a = (110 m)/(13.57 s 2)

a = 8.10 m/ s 2

2. A feather is dropped on the moon from a height of 1.40 meters. The acceleration of gravity on the
moon is 1.67 m/s2. Determine the time for the feather to fall to the surface of the moon.
Given: Find:
v i = 0 m/s d = -1.40 m a = -1.67 m/s 2 t = ??

d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2
-1.40 m = (0 m/s)*(t)+ 0.5*(-1.67 m/s2)*(t)2

-1.40 m = 0+ (-0.835 m/s2)*(t)2

(-1.40 m)/(-0.835 m/s2) = t2

1.68 s2 = t2

t = 1.29 s

3. A stone is dropped into a deep well and is heard to hit the water 3.41 s after being dropped.
Determine the depth of the well.
Given: Find:
a = -9.8 m/s 2 t = 3.41 s v i = 0 m/s d = ??
d = vi*t + 0.5*a*t2
d = (0 m/s)*(3.41 s)+ 0.5*(-9.8 m/s2)*(3.41 s)2

d = 0 m+ 0.5*(-9.8 m/s2)*(11.63 s2)

d = -57.0 m

4. A kangaroo is capable of jumping to a height of 2.62 m. Determine the takeoff speed of the
kangaroo.
Given: Find:
a = -9.8 m/s 2 v f = 0 m/s d = 2.62 m vi = ??

vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d

(0 m/s)2 = vi2 + 2*(-9.8 m/s2)*(2.62 m)

0 m2/s2 = vi2 - 51.35 m2/s2

51.35 m2/s2 = vi2

vi = 7.17 m/s
