Question
A private jet carrying Peter Parker takes off with a constant acceleration of 5m/s². Natasha Romanoff jumps on just as the jet plane lifts of the ground. They took a fight 10 seconds on the jet then suddenly the Romanoff shuts the engine off and jumps out of the jet. The instant the engine shut doen; the jet assumed in free fall. Romanoff deploys a jet pack 7s after leaving the helicopter with a constant downward acceleration of 2m/s². How far is Romanoff above the ground when the jet crashes into the ground?

- 5 2 A small steel ball, dropped from rest, takes 0.50 s to fall through a vertical distance of 1.25 m. Determine (a) the average speed of the ball, AVO Speed=DIT = 1.25/0.5 = 2.5mls (b) the actual speed of the ball after it has fallen through a vertical distance of 1.25 m, assuming that the acceleration is constant, the value of that acceleration. (c)arrow_forwardQuestion 2: #81 A rocket is launched straight up with constant acceleration. Four seconds after liftoff, a bolt falls off the side of the rocket. The bolt hits the ground 6.0 s later. What was the rocket’s acceleration?arrow_forwardIn the first stage of a two-stagerocket, the rocket is fired from the launch pad starting from rest butwith a constant acceleration of 3.50 m/s2 upward. At 25.0 s after launch,the second stage fires for 10.0 s, which boosts the rocket’s velocity to132.5 m/s upward at 35.0 s after launch. This firing uses up all of thefuel, however, so after the second stage has finished firing, the onlyforce acting on the rocket is gravity. Ignore air resistance. How fast will the stagetwo rocket be moving just as it reaches the launch pad?arrow_forward
- A runner accelerated from rest at x0 = 0m with a constant acceleration 2.0 m/s2 for 2.0 s and then kept running with his constant velocity for an additional 8.0 s. Assume that the runner moved in a straight line.arrow_forward6. A hot-air balloon is descending at a rate of 2.3 m/s when a passenger drops a camera. If the camera is 41 m above the ground when it is dropped, (a) what is its velocity just before it lands? (b) how much time does it take for the camera to reach the ground? Let upward be the positive direction for this problem.arrow_forwardWhen last we left our friend Wile E. Coyote (SuperGenius), was peeling himself off a canyon wall and none the worse for wear. This time, he has obtained an Acme^ TM rocket-powered dragster with the AcmeTM Premium Parachute Braking System (patent pending)Starting from restthe dragster accelerates at a constant rate of 36.4 m/s ^ 2 for 14 seconds. At this point, the coyote realizes that he has passed the Road Runner and so he instantly cuts off the engine and deploys his braking system - which doesn't work. He therefore travels an additional distance of 1800 m at constant velocity until again becoming one with a canyon wall. Determine: (a) The total time for Wile E. Coyote's motion described above; on (b) The total distance covered by Wile E. Coyote's motion described above ; (c) The average velocity for Wile E. Coyote's motion described above.arrow_forward

Determine the cheetah's average acceleration during the short sprint, and b.

While slowing, it moves a distance of 40.0 m in 7.40 s to a final velocity of 1.50 m/s, at which point the brakes are released. What was its initial speed (in m/s), just before the brakes were applied? What was its acceleration (in m/s2) while the brakes were applied? (Assume the initial direction of motion is the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)arrow_forward1: Two trucks both cover a straight distance, d = 297 m, in time t = 11.5 s. Truck A moves at a constant velocity (vA).
