is the magnitude of its acceleration (assumed constant) in
m/s*, and in g's (g = 980m/s!)?
26. (Il) A world-class sprinter can reach a top speed (of about
11.5 m/s) in the first 18.0m of a race. What is the average
acceleration of this sprinter and how long docs it take her
to reach that speed?
30, (II) A car traveling 75km/h slows down at a constant
0.50 m/s* just by “letting up on the gas” Calculate (a) the
distance the car coasts before it stops, (b) the time it
takes to stop, and (c) the distance it travels during the
first and fifth seconds.
A space vehicle accelerates uniformly from 85 m/s
to 162 m/s at 1 = 10.0s. How far did it move
between = 20s and 1 = 6.08?
43, (ID) A kangaroo jumps straight up to a vertical height of
1.45 m. How long wast in the air before returning to Earth?
46, (II) A stone is thrown vertically upward with a speed of
24.0m/s. (a) How fast is it moving when it is at a
‘height of 13.0m? (6) How much time is required to reach
this height? (c) Why are there two answers to (b)?
49. (II) A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of
5.40 m/s. At a height of 105 m above the Earth, a package
is dropped from the helicopter. How much time does it take
for the package to reach the ground? [Hint. What is ty for
the package?}
(68. A stone is dropped from the roof of a high building. A second
stone is dropped 1.30s later. How far apart are the stones
‘when the second one has reached a speed of 12.0 m/s?
5. (ID) Vis a vector 24.8 units in magnitude and points at an
angle of 23.4° above the negative x axis (a) Sketch this
vector. (b) Calculate V, and Vy. (¢) Use V, and V, to
obtain (again) the magnitude and direction of V. [Note:
Part (¢) is a good way to check if you've resolved your
vector correctly.)
8 (II) An airplane is traveling 835 km/h in a direction 41.5°
west of north (Fig. 3-34).
(a) Find the components N
‘of the velocity vector
in the northerly FAL
and westerly direc- (835 knv/h)
tions (6) How far
north and how far wy, i
west has the plane
traveled after 1.75h?

15. (II) The summit of a mountain, 2450 m above base camp,
is measured on a map to be 4580 m horizontally from the
‘camp in a direction 384° west of north. What are the compo-
nents of the displacement vector from camp to summit:

edge of a vertical cliff and 3.0s later reaches the water
below. How high was the cliff and how far from its base did
the diver hit the water?
22. (II) A football is kicked at ground level with a speed of
180 m/s at an angle of 31.0° to the horizontal. How much
later does it hit the ground?
27. (II) A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 36.6 m/s
lat an angle of 422° above the horizontal on a long flat
firing range. Determine (a) the maximum height reached
by the projectile, (b) the total time in the air, (c) the total
horizontal distance covered (that is, the range), and (d) the

throws a ball ‘outward from the basket with
speed 10.0m/s (Fig. 3-44). What initial velocity (magni-
tude and direction) does the ball have relative to a person
standing on the ground (a) if the hot-air balloon is rising
at 3.0m/s relative to the ground during this throw, (b) if
the hot-air balloon is descending at 3.0 m/s relative to the

49. (II) A child, who is 451m from the bank of a river, is being.
carried helplessly downstream by the river's swift current
‘of 1.0m/s. As the child passes a lifeguard on the river's
bank, the lifeguard starts swimming in a straight line
(Fig 3-46) until she reaches the child at a point downstream.
If the lifeguard can swim at a speed of 2.0m/s relative
to the water, how long docs it take her to reach the child?
How far downstream does the lifeguard intercept the
child?
cross a river and arrive at a point 118m
upstream from where it starts (Fig. 3-45). To do so, the
pilot must head the boat at a 45.0° upstream angle. What
is the speed of the
river's current?
