1. With an initial velocity of 200m/s, a car accelerated at 8

m/s2 for 10 seconds.
a. What is the distance of the car at the end of the 10
seconds?
b. What is the final velocity of the car at the end of the 10
seconds?
2. A boy on a bicycle increases his
velocity from 5 m/s to 20 m/s in 10
seconds.
a. What is the acceleration of the bicycle?
b. What distance was covered by the
bicycle during the 10 seconds?
3. A train brakes from 40 m/s to a
stop over a time of 100s.

a.What is the acceleration of the train?

Vertical Motion
Things thrown upward
always fall at a constant
acceleration which has a
magnitude of 9.8 m/s .2

ag= 9.8 m/s 2

Sample Problem:

1. Ben is playing with his ball on top of

a building, but the ball fell and hits the
ground after 2.6 seconds, what is the
final velocity of the ball just before it
hits the ground and how high is the
building?
Given: Find:
ag = -9.8 m/s2 t = 2.6 s vf = ?
vi = 0 m/s h = ?
2. The acceleration of gravity on the
moon is 1.62 m/s . If a ball is
2

dropped on the moon from a height

of 2 m. Determine the time for the
ball to fall to the surface
of the moon.
3. A rock is thrown straight up
and reaches a height of 10 m.
How long was the rock in the air?
What is the initial velocity of the
rock?
4. To approximate the height of
water well, Martha and John drop
a heavy rock into the well. 8
seconds after the rock is dropped,
they hear a splash caused by the
impact of the rock on the water.
(Speed of sound in air is 340 m/s).
What is the height of the well?
3. An object is thrown straight
down from the top of a building
at a speed of 20 m/s. It hits the
ground with a speed of 40 m/s.
How high is the building?
How long was the object in the
air?
Motion in Two Dimensions
 Projectile- is the
curve path travelled
by an object
Projectiles are only
acted upon by
gravity.
Therefore projectiles launched
horizontally only have
downward acceleration (ay),
which is equivalent to -9.8
m/s2 and has no horizontal
acceleration (ax = 0).
A marble is thrown horizontally from a
table top with a velocity of 1.50 m/s.
The marble falls 0.70 m away from the
table’s edge.
A) How high is the lab table?
B) What is the marble’s velocity just
before it hits the floor?
