negative x-axis with a speed of V, =7 m/s for 2 seconds and then moves along the positive x-axis with a speed
of V3 =15 m/s for 2 seconds What is the average speed of the object (m/s)?

A firework is launched with an initial velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees with respect to the horizontal.
a. The peak height of the firework, right before explosion.b. The vertical component of the firework’s velocity, as it reaches the peak of its motion and explodes.c. The horizontal distance traveled by the firework, just as it reaches the peak of its motion and explodes.
Which of the following are TRUE? Choose only two (2).
Select one or more:
a. The range is inversely proportional to the sine of twice the launch angle.
b. At constant initial velocity, as the launch angle increases, range also increases.
c. The range is directly proportional to the sine of twice the launch angle.
d. At constant initial velocity, for launch angles less than 45°, range increases as launch angles increases. For angles greater than 45°, range decreases as launch angles increases.
e. At constant initial velocity, as the launch angle increases, range decreases.

Your friend on the swim team wants to swim across the lake. The plan is that your friend will swim to Presque Isle starting at a location at Long Point, Ontario which is 24 miles due north of Presque Isle. You will be navigating a boat with a GPS. Your friend can maintain a speed of 1.80 mph in still water. All during the swim you observe that objects drifting in the water are moving at 0.70 mph to the east due to the current. a. What bearing should you maintain? That is what direction should you point the boat to reach Presque Isle? Give your answer relative to a compass direction (i.e., 30° north of west). Hint, you want your net velocity vector to be straight south. b. How long did it take your friend to swim across Lake Erie? c. What is the addition amount of time that your friend will need to swim compared to if there was no current (assume your friend swims at a constant rate)?arrow_forward

A group of mountain climbers walked 5.7 km north from their camp, then walk 10 km more to the east. (a) What was the total distance walked by the mountain climbers? (b) Determine the total displacement from the starting point. 2. Anna walked 12 km north, 15 km south, and then walk 12 km west. What is the total distance Anna traveled? What is her total displacement? 3. A body is moving at a uniform speed travels a distance of 120 m/s in 10 s. Find its average speed.arrow_forwardSally is on a kayak that comes to a stop a small distance from the dock. Since it is such a small distance, Sally decides to jump to the dock. She makes the jump, but the kayak moves away from her as she jumps. Since Sally is interested to see what happens on other boats, she makes the same jump from a yacht that is much larger than the kayak. Which boat will move away from Sally more quickly? 1)It is impossible to predict which boat moves away from Sally more quickly. 2)The yacht will move away from Sally more quickly because it is larger in mass. 3)Both boats will move away at the same speed because Sally has not changed mass and momentum must be conserved. 4)The kayak will move away from Sally more quickly because the yacht is larger in mass.arrow_forward
