Why is the following situation possible?
Emily challenges her friend David to catch a $1 bill as follows. She holds the bill vertically as shown in figure P2.29 with the center of the bill between but not touching David's index finger and thumb. Without warning, Emily releases the bill. David catches the bill without moving his hands downwards. David reaction time is equal to the average human reaction time.
Avg human reaction time is .2s.
Dollar bill is approx 15.5cm in length.
I need help explaining this. Thank you.
A particle moves along the x axis beginning at x = −2 m at time zero. The particle moves forward at speed 4 m/s for 3 seconds, then backward at 3 m/s for 2 seconds, then forward again at 1 m/s for 3 seconds. Draw a position vs. time graph for this motion. Draw a velocity vs. time graph for the same motion.
Emily challenges her husband, David, to catch a $1 bill
as follows. She holds the bill vertically as in Figure P2.67,
with the center of the bill
between David's index finger
and thumb. David must catch
the bill after Emily releases
it without moving his hand
downward. If his reaction
time is 0.2 s, will he succeed?
Explain your reasoning. (This
challenge is a good trick you
might want to try with your
friends.)

- We are standing on the top of a 1040 feet tall building and launch a small object upward. The object's height, measured in feet, after t seconds is h(t) = 16t? + 128t + 1040. A) What is the object initial velocity? ft/second B) What is the highest point that the object reaches? feetarrow_forwardWhen given a velocity vs. time graph, draw the corresponding position vs. time and acceleration vs. time graphs. Graphs should include labels (including numerical values and correct units) for both the horizontal and vertical axes. The values don't have to be exactly right, but they should be relatively close. If possible, find the slope and apply it to a real life situation.arrow_forwardHand written solutions are strictly prohibited.arrow_forward
- Given the equation of the displacement x of a certain object at any time t x = 2t + 3t² + 10, in meter a. What is the velocity of the object at time t = 5 seconds? b. What is the acceleration of the object at time t = 10 seconds? Note: Velocity is the first derivative of displacement. Acceleration is the second derivative of displacement.arrow_forwardA thief is trying to escape from a parking garage after completing a robbery, and the thief’s car is speeding (v = 11 m/s) toward the door of the parking garage (Fig. P2.60). When the thief is L = 14 m from the door a police officer flips a switch to close the garage door. The door starts at a height of 7 m and moves downward at 0.3 m/s. If the thief’s car is 1.4 m tall, will the thief escape? (Find the height of the door above the ground).arrow_forwardA runner hopes to complete the 9.9 km run in less than 30.2 min. After running at constant speed for exactly 27.1 min, there are still 1.2 km to go. The runner must then accelerate at 0.21 m/s2 for how many seconds in order to achieve the desired time? Your answer must include two digits after the decimal point and maximum of 5% of error is accepted in your answer.arrow_forward
- A model rocket accelerates upward from the ground with a constant acceleration, reaching a height of 1000 m in 10 s. a) What is the speed (in m/s) at a height of 1000 m? b) What is the acceleration (in m/s 2)?arrow_forwardI am having trouble with an average speed problem. The problem states that a person walks at 4.5 meters per second from point a to b. Then walks back from point b to a at a speed of 3.2 m/s. I know that average speed is displacement/time. However I am not sure how to calculate time or displacement from the two givens. The problem also gives that the average velocity is 0.arrow_forwardI have no clue why this problem is being rejected. I have submitted similar problems and have been answered. Can I please get some help with this. Thank you!arrow_forward
