Chapter 3, Problem 9P

A skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 12.0 -m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 7.70   m / s .

  1. Determine the magnitude of her acceleration, assumed to be constant.
  2. If the ramp is inclined at 25.0 ° with respect to the ground, what is the component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground?

The driver of a car moving at 90.0 km/h presses down on the brake as the car enters a circular curve of radius 150.0 m. If the speed of the car is decreasing at a rate of 9.0 km/h each second, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car at the instant its speed is 60.0 km/h?
A bicycle travels 9.50 km due east in 0.740 h, then 9.20km 15.0 degrees east of north in 0.730 h, and finally another 9.50km east in 0.740h to reach its destination. The time lost in turning is negligible. Assume that east is in the +x direction and north is in the +y direction.What is the magnitude of the average velocity for the entire trip?Give answer in km/h
A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal turn, going from 82.0 km/h to 52.0 km/h in the 13.0 s that it takes to round the bend. The radius of the curve is 130 m. Compute the acceleration at the moment the train speed reaches 52.0 km/h. Assume the train continues to slow down at this time at the same rate. find magnitude and direction
