The human body can survive a negative sudden stop if the magnitude of the acceleration is less than 250m/s². If you are in an automobile accident with an initial speed of 105km/h and are stopped by an airbag that inflates from the dashboard, over what distance must the airbag stop you for you to survive the crash?
Hobbyists build a compressed air powered cannon which is able to launch a pumpkin a horizontal distance of 2700 ft. Assuming no air resistance, and assuming the pumpkin is launched at ground level, what is the minimum initial speed of the pumpkin (just as it leaves the cannon) that is needed for it to reach this distance, in m/s? 294 X m/s
A sailor is enjoying a nice day on his sailboat, sailing west with the wind at constant velocity. At one point the sailor spots an anchored buoy some distance to the east of the boat, and turns on his motor to head towards it. The boat kept gliding to the west for some distance before turning around and heading eastward. The boat was traveling initially with velocity v = -6.0i m/s and it took the the boat 2.0 s to turn around. What is the velocity of the boat, 5.0 s after the motor is turned on? The coordinate system is set up such that the +i direction is East. Pick the correct answer O +3.0î m/s O -9.0i m/s O -3.0î m/s o +9.0å m/s o +2.0i m/s
A 440g beanbag slides up a cornhole board (if you’ve never played cornhole before, the board is basically a ramp). The board is tilted 10.◦ from the hori- zontal. The beanbag initially is moving with a speed of 1.21 m/s directly up the ramp. It stops at a displacement 0.35m from where it was initially, and then slides back down 1. How does the magnitude of the acceleration of the bean bag on the wayup compare to the acceleration of the beanbag on the way down? Explainyour reasoning.2. What is the coefficient of friction between the bean bag and the ramp?3. What is the bean bag’s speed when it reaches its initial starting point onits way down?
#2) For this problem, ignore air resistance and assume the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.80 m/s². Let's also use up as the positive direction. Report answers to 3 sig figs. ECANSU (A) A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant net acceleration of 32.8 m/s2. The acceleration period lasts for a time of 3.47 s until the fuel is exhausted. Find the height the rocket reaches in the first 3.47 s. Show starting equations, algebra first, show final equations, numbers last. (B) After 3.47s, the fuel runs out and the rocket is now in free fall as it continues its motion. Find the total maximum height the rocket reaches as measured from the ground. Show starting equations, algebra first, show final equations, numbers last.
(b) If the jet touches down at position xi = 0, what is its final position? Home work: A typical jetliner lands at a speed of 71.5 m/s and decelerates at the rate of 4.47m/s². If the plane travels at a constant speed of 71.5 m/s for 1.00 s after landing before applying the brakes, what is the total displacement of the aircraft between touchdown on the runway and coming to rest ( stop )?

At a location where g=9.80 m/s2 , an object is thrown vertically down with an initial speed of 1.00 m/s. After 5.00 s the object will have traveled:
The brakes are applied to a moving car, causing it to uniformly slow down. While slowing, it moves a distance of 40.0 m in 7.00 s to a final velocity of 2.05 m/s, at which point the brakes are released. (a) What was its initial speed (in m/s), just before the brakes were applied? i have tried so many ways to solve this and i cant please explain
A flea jumps by rapidly extending its hind legs. An angle of 20°is typical. The flea’s body reachesa takeoff speed of 1.3 m/s over a distance of 1.0 mm. How long does the jump last?
An Osprey can fly horizontally (not diving) at a maximum speed of 70.0 km/hr. The bird takes off from rest at the edge of a cliff, heading east, and accelerates at a rate of 1.21 m/s2. The osprey can decelerate at higher rate of 2.43 m/s2. The Osprey can reach top speeds of about 84 mph. When doing so, it does not flap its wings. Rather, it relies on its gravitational force to accelerate it downwards. a. Assuming that it starts from rest, and assuming that drag forces are slim, how long will it take for the osprey to reach its top speed? b. How far does it travel during this time? c. Near the top speed, drag forces become important, and in fact the terminal velocity is determined by the drag force. Assuming that the osprey's body can be modeled as a cylinder, with its cross-sectional area equal to that of a circle with radius of 10 cm, what is the coefficient of drag C for a hawk?
A rocket is fired vertically upward from the surface of the earth at a constant acceleration of 20.0 m/s2. After 30.0 s the fuel in the first stage of the rocket is expended, and the empty container is released and falls back to earth. Find the maximum height reached by the container.
An Object is initially moving in the X direction at 5.5 m per seconds, when it undergoes an acceleration in thr Y direction for a period of 22 seconds. If the object moves equal distance in the X and Y direction During this time, what's the magnitude of its acceleration?
