1. The acceleration due to gravity of the
A ballast bag is dropped from a balloon that
moon is 1.67m/s2 . If a person can throw
a stone 12m straight upward on the
moon, how high should the person be
able to throw a stone on the earth?
Assume that the throwing speeds are
the same in the two cases. (20points)
3. A box slides down an incline with uniform
acceleration. It starts from rest and attains a
speed of 2.7m/s in 3s. Find the following
a. The acceleration. (10points)
b. The distance moved in 6s. (10points)
2.
is 300m above the ground and rising at 13m/s.
Find the following
a. The maximum height reached by the bag.
(10points)
b. How long after you release it does the bag
hits the ground? (10points)
c. The Velocity of the bag just before it hits
the ground. (5points)
4. A rocket-propelled car starts from rest and
moves in a straight line with constant
acceleration a = 5m/s2 for 8s until the fuel is
exhausted. It then continues with constant
velocity. What distance does the car cover for
6s after the fuel of the car exhausted?

1. The dragster starts from rest and has
an acceleration described by the graph.
Determine the time for it to stop. Also,
what is its maximum speed? Construct
the v-t and s-t graphs for the time
interval 0 to t` (50 points)
2. Refer to the figure below, the projectile is fired
with an initial velocity of vo = 35m/s at an angle θ =
23˚. The truck is moving along X with a constant
speed of 15 m/s. At the instant the projectile is fired,
the back of the truck is at x = 45m. Find the time for
the projectile to strike the back of the truck, if the
truck is very tall.
