In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
A bath toy is floating stationary in water such that half of the toy is above water and half of the toy is below the water. A kid pulls the toy 3.7 cm down into the water and then lets go. The toy then proceeds to bob up and down. It bobs up and down 16 times in a minute. (a) What is the equation that describes the position of the object at any given time? (b) Where is the toy at time t = 1.41 second (in cm)? Is it mostly above or below the water at this time? Explain.
You are wearing your rocket pack (m = 73 kg) that accelerates upwards at a constant 10.1 m/s?. While preparing to take pictures of the beautiful view, you drop your camera 6.8 seconds after liftoff. 5.7 seconds after you drop the camera, how far are you from the camera? Assume g = 9.81 m/s/s Give your answer in meters to TWO (2) significant figures.
A rocket is launched vertically upward from rest on the ground, and its thrust gives the rocket a constant upward acceleration of 6m/s?. If the fuel is exhausted 19.6 seconds after the launch, what was the maximum altitude that can be reached by the rocket?
The Cassini spacecraft traveled with a companion module, Huygens, that split off so that it could land on Saturn's moon, Titan. The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Titan is 1.352 m/s?. If a piece of Huygens falls from a height of 1.40 m and lands on the surface of Titan, how long would the piece take to fall? Assume it starts from rest. 2.07 s 0.535 s 1.43 s 0.286 s
An elevator in the Taipei 101 skyscraper can start fromrest and accelerate to a maximum speed of 16 m>s with a constantacceleration of 1.1 m>s2. Through what distance does the elevatormove as it accelerates to its maximum speed?
You wake up in a strange room, and this time you drop a ball from a height of 1.74 m, and observe that it hits the floor 0.298 s after you drop it. In this case you suspect you are in deep space, far from any planet or star, and that your rocket is accelerating due to the push of its own engines under the floor. In this case, what must the acceleration of your rocket be? 74.5 m/s^2 74.5 m/s^2 19.6 m/s^2 29.4 m/s^2
At a NASA research center free-fall research is performed by dropping experiment packages from the top of an evacuated shaft 145 m high. Free-fall imitates the so-called microgravity environment of a satellite in orbit. (a) What is the maximum time interval for free fall if an experiment package were to fall the entire 145 m? (b) Actual NASA specifications allow for a 5.10 s drop time interval. How far do the packages drop in 5.10 s? (c) What is their speed at 5.10 s? (d) What constant acceleration would be required to stop an experiment package in the distance remaining in the shaft after its 5.10 s fall?
An astronaut is playing with a ping pong paddle and ball in zero gravity. The astronaut is 12 m from a flat wall and floating toward it at 4 m/s. A ping pong ball bounces back and forth between his paddle and the wall at 11 m/s. Eventually, the astronaut reaches the wall and traps the ball against it. Now treat the “bounce” somewhat realistically. If the bounce lasts 25ms, what is the average acceleration of the ball during this time? Give the magnitude only in m/s^2.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of a planet depends on the mass and size of the planet; therefore, other planets will have accelerations due to gravity other than 9.8 m / s2. Imagine an astronaut standing on an alien planet, which has no atmosphere, and throws a stone with a velocity of 7.35 m / s in a horizontal direction, dropping it at a height of 1.40 m above the surface of the planet. The rock hits the surface at a horizontal distance of 9.50 m from the astronaut. Find the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, in m / s2, on this alien planet.
