Question
Car A is moving to the right at 0.5m/s. Meanwhile, Car B, which is 6 meters to the right of car A
is moving to the left at 0.25m/s. Looks like they’re going to have a head-on collision. Predict the location of the collision.

- Hanamichi Sakuragi finishes the game strong as he jumps up straight and slams-dunk the ball in the final battle between the Shohoku and Ryonan. To do this, Sakuragi lowers his body by 0.450 m and then accelerates through the distance by firmly straightening his legs. Sakuragi departs the floor with just enough vertical velocity to lift him 30 inches (average length to dunk a full-sized basketball) above the floor, allowing him to dunk the ball. (a) Determine his velocity as he departs the floor. (b) Determine his acceleration while straightening his legs. He travels 0.450 m from zero to the velocity determined in the first component of the problem. (c) Determine the force he applies on the floor to do this, considering Hanamichi Sakuragi's mass of 183 lbs.arrow_forwardYou swipe a lego brick off of your table.
