- At t = 0, a stone is thrown at an angle of 35.0 ◦ above the horizontal with an initial speed equal to 25.0 ms−1. Calculate the magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical components of its displacement at t = 1.20 s.arrow_forwardA plane flies 493 km east from city A to city B in 45.0 min and then 983 km south from city B to city C in 1.30 h. For the total trip, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the plane's displacement, the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of its average velocity, and (e) its average speed?

- A person walks 2.80 km north and then 2.00 km east, all in 2.20 hours. (a) What is the magnitude (in km) and direction (in degrees north of east) of her displacement during the given time? (b) What is the magnitude (in km/h) and direction (in degrees north of east) of her average velocity during the given time?(c) What was her average speed (in km/h) during the same time interval?arrow_forwardA place-kicker must kick a football from a point of 36.0 m ( about 40 yards) from the goal. Half the crowd hopes the ball will clear the crossbar, which is 3.05 m high. When kicked, the ball leaves the ground with a speed of 23.9 m/s at an angle of 51.5 degrees to the horizontal. So in step 3 use an equation for the y-component of displacement under constant acceleration to find the height of the ball at this time, where yo is the initial vertical displacement, voy is the initial y-component of velocity, and ay is the vertical acceleration. y=yo+voy^t+1/2ayt^2. Use trigonometry.arrow_forwardAt the beginning of a 3.0-h plane trip, you are traveling due north at 192 km/h. At the end, you are traveling 239 km/h in the northwest direction (45° west of north). What is the magnitude of your average acceleration during the trip? answer in km/h^2arrow_forward
- Initially, a particle is moving at 5.45 m/s at an angle of 38.5 above the horizontal. Four seconds later, its velocity is 6.24 m/s at an angle of 54.3 below the horizontal.

Enter a number assuming proper SI Units.arrow_forwardIn reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.48 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, because she hikes for 6.55 km with an average velocity of 2.75 m/s, due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.513 m/s, due east. How far east did she walk?arrow_forwardThe initial velocity of a car is 35 m/s due North. Its final velocity is 42 m/s at 15 degrees South of East. If this takes 30 seconds, what is the magnitude and direction of the car's average acceleration?arrow_forward
