Problem 2.01. A student drove to the university from her home and noted that the odome-
ter reading of her car increased by 12.0 km. The trip took 18.0 min. (a) What was her average
speed? (b) If the straight-line distance from her home to the university is 10.3 km in a di-
rection 25.0° south of east, what was her average velocity? (c) If she returned home by the
same path 7 h 30 min after she left, what were her average speed and velocity for the entire
trip?
A person stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a rock horizontally over the edge with a speed of v = 23.0 m/s. The rock leaves his hand at a height of
h = 43.0 m above level ground at the bottom of the cliff, as shown in the figure. Note the coordinate system in the figure, where the origin is at the bottom of the
cliff, directly below where the rock leaves the hand.
