Romeo lives in a bachelor apartment. Juliet lives in her own bachelorette apartment a
floor below. On St Patrick's Day Romeo drops small green ceramic roses from his
balcony to attract Juliet's attention. Juliet is looking out her window when she sees
the roses go by. Her security camera measures the time for the each rose to pass the
full height of her 1.0 m tall window as 0.123 s. How high above the top of Juliet's
window is Romeo's hand?

An object's position in the as a function of time obeys the equation;
x(t) = 14.2/t2.17 + 5.1t3
where all constants have proper SI Units.
What is the speed of the object in the x direction at t = 1.93 seconds?
Arthur and Betty start walking toward each other when they are 100. m apart. Arthur
has a speed of 3.0 m/s and Betty has a speed of 2.0 m/s. Their dog, Spot, starts from
Arthur's side at the same time and runs back and forth between them. By the time Arthur
and Betty meet, what is Spot's displacement?

- Wyle E. Coyote hears a constant “Beep! Beep!” from around the corner of a cliff. Thinking it might be the Road Runner, he scampers up to speed and runs towards the sound to the East. On coming around the corner, he sees that it is not the Road Runner, but a truck coming towards him towards the West. The speed of the truck is 25 m/s. The speed of the Coyote is 100 m/s. The Coyote hears a frequency of 5500 Hz. The temperature of the air is 300 K. The mass of the truck is 1500 kg. The mass of the Coyote is 90 kg. Assume the air is an ideal gas with γ = 1.40 and the air molecules have a mass of 4.8*10-26 kg. The Boltzmann constant is k = 1.38*10-23 J/K. a. What is the speed of sound in this air? b. What is the original frequency of the horn on the truck? c. Assuming a perfectly inelastic collision, what is the final speed and direction of the truck, Coyote conglomerate (ignore any friction with the road)?arrow_forwardA "moving sidewalk" in an airport terminal building moves at a speed of 1.3 m/s and is of length 37.0 m. A woman steps on at one end and walks at a speed of 1.8 m/s relative to the moving sidewalk. a) How much time does she require to walk from one end to the other if she walks in the same direction the sidewalk is moving? b) How much time does she require to walk from one end to the other if she walks opposite to the direction the sidewalk is moving? Not: Need drawing with solutionarrow_forwardOne of my questions got solved and helped me so much thank you! Here’s another one please. Two trains are 9.82km apart. They travel in opposite directions, to each other. Train A has a speed of 5.87 km/h at departure and an acceleration of 0.29m/s squared. Train B has a speed of 20.3m/s at the start and an acceleration of 0.69m/s squared. B. Determine when the trains meet.arrow_forward

How much time (in seconds) do you have to react before you bump into themarrow_forwardAn airport terminal has a moving sidewalk to speed passengers through a long corridor. Larry does not use the moving sidewalk; he takes 150 s to walk through the corridor. Curly, who simply stands on the moving sidewalk, covers the same distance in 70 s. Moe boards the sidewalk and walks along it. How long does Moe take to move through the corridor? Assume that Larry and Moe walk at the same speed.arrow_forward

Bob then put the ring on Alice’s finger. Alice was very happy. She threw her hands up in the air. Unfortunately, the ring slipped from her finger and fell down due to gravity.Bob set up a camera to record the moment. Thus, he look at the footage and determine that the ring was going out of Alice’s hand with speed of vi =10m/s at an angle of θ=30 . The dimension of the building is given below. (a) If the ring were to land on the terrace, how long would it take?(b) If the ring were to land on the Lawn, how long would it take?(c) Where should Bob search for the ring? Terrace or lawn?

These sidewalks move at a constant speed of 1 m/s. A lady passenger takes one of the sidewalks to go from one point to the next. If the passenger decides to go back using the same sidewalk at 1 m/s, how long will it take to reach her point of origin?arrow_forwardYou are sitting in your car at a red light when you see a zombie standing still 65m in front of your car. You both begin to accelerate towards each other. Your car accelerates at 1.8 m/s^2 and the zombie accelerates at 0.6 m/s^2. How long does it take for you to strike the zombie?
