- In Chapter 5, you will study a very important vector, force. Each case in Figure P3.13 shows an example of force vectors exerted on an object. These forces are all of the same magnitude F0. Assume that the forces lie in the plane of the paper. Rank the cases from greatest to smallest according to the magnitude of the total force. Note: The total force is the vector sum of the individual forces exerted on the object.arrow_forwardA motion diagram of a bouncing ball is shown in Figure P4.5. a.

- A 20-kg boy slides down a playground slide with a constant acceleration a = 1.1 m/s2 parallel to the surface of the slide. The boy starts sliding with an initial speed of v0=0. Refer to the figure. a) write an expression for the child's speed squared, vf2, at the bottom of the slide in terms of a, v0, and the length of the slide, d. b If the slide is 4.0 m long and the boy's final speed is vf=f = 5.0 m/s, what is his initial speed, in meters per second? c) When starting from rest, how long, in seconds, does it take the boy to reach the bottom of the slide?arrow_forwardWhich statement is true?

- Buzz Lightyear is standing on top of a building on the planet Zook. He wishes to determine the height of the building, so he drops a stone off the building and it falls for 2 seconds. Buzz knows that gravitational acceleration on Zook is 5 (m/s)/s. a) EXPLAIN how you would use the How fast method to determine the speed of the stone when it reaches the ground as well as the average speed of the stone during this time. Give the speed and average speed of the stone. b) EXPLAIN how you would use the How-far method to determine height of the building. Give the height of the building.
