1 Practice Problems For Test 2 C ircled problems not on test but may be extra credit on test Velocity-Acceleration Models Constant Acceleration 1. The skid marks made by an automobile indicated that its brakes were fully applied for a distance of 75 m before it came to a stop. The car in question is known to have a constant deceleration of 20 m/s 2 under these conditions. How fast - in km/hr - was the car traveling when the brakes were first applied? 2. Suppose that a car skids 15 m if it is moving at 50 km/hr when the brakes are applied. Assuming that the car has the same constant deceleration, how far will it skid if it is moving at 100 km/hr when the brakes are applied? 3. A stone is dropped from rest at an initial height h above the surface of the earth. Show that the speed with which it strikes the ground is v = 2gh. 4. Suppose a woman has enough spring in her legs to jump (on earth) from the ground to a height of 2.25 feet. If she jumps straight upward with the same initial velocity on the moon - where the surface gravitational acceleration is (approximately) 5.3 ft/s 2 - how high above the surface will she rise? 5. A bomb is dropped from a helicopter hovering at an altitude of 800 feet above the ground. From the ground directly beneath the helicopter, a projectile is fired straight upward toward the bomb, exactly 2 seconds after the bomb is release. With what initial velocity should the projectile be fired, in order to hit the bomb at an altitude of exactly 400 feet? 6. A spacecraft is in free fall toward the surface of the moon at a speed of 1000 mph. Its retrorockets, when fired, provide a constant deceleration of 20,000 mi/h 2. At what height above the lunar surface should the astronauts fire the retrorockets to insure a soft touchdown? (Ignore the moon s gravitational field) 7. A driver involved in an accident claims he was going only 25 mph. When police tested his car, they found that when its brakes were applied at 25 mph, the car skidded only 45 feet before coming to a stop. But the driver s skid marks at the accident scene measured 210 feet. Assuming the same (constant) deceleration, determine the speed he was actually traveling just prior to the accident. Variable Acceleration 1.

Consider the vertical motion of a body with mass m near the surface of the earth (constant gravitational force: g) and a force due to air resistance that is proportional to the square of velocity of the object. Assume we have an initial velocity of v 0. Set up a differential equation and find the terminal speed of the object. ( lim t v(t) =?) 3 A lunar lander is free-falling toward the moon, and at an altitude of 53 kilometers above the lunar surface its downward velocity is measured at 1477 km/hr. Its retrorockets, when fired in free space, provide a deceleration of T = 4 m/s 2. At what height above the lunar surface should the retrorockets be activated to ensure a soft touchdown?

Use Newton s universal law of gravitation to show that the object impacts the earth surface with a velocity determined by 2ghR v = h + R where g is the acceleration due to gravity at the earth s surface and R is the radius of the earth. Ignore any effects due to earth s rotation or atmosphere. 6. An train engine, starting from rest, pulls a train of mass m using constant power P. The forces resisting to the movement of the train is P dv kv, therefore, the force equation is m v dt = P kv, v(0) = 0. v Explain why the maximum speed of the train is given by P v max = k. Solve the initial value problem, writing the solution in the form t = t(v). The constant k should not be in the final answer. 7.

If this machine can accelerate from rest to 100 km/h in ten seconds, how long will it take for the car to accelerate from rest to 200 km/h? 8. Suppose that a motorboat is moving at 40 ft/s when its motor suddenly quits, and that ten seconds later the boat has slowed to 20 ft/s. Assume that the resistance it encounters while coasting is proportional to its velocity. How far will the boat coast in all? 9. Assuming resistance proportional to the square of the velocity, how far does the motorboat of the previous problem coast in the first minute after its motor quits? 10.

Find the car s maximum possible velocity. Find how long it takes the car to attain 90% of its limiting velocity, and how far it travels while doing so. 11. A motorboat starts from rest. Its motor provides a constant acceleration of 4 ft/s 2, but water resistance causes a deceleration of v2 400 ft/s 2. Find the velocity after ten seconds. Also find the velocity as t (the maximum possible speed of the boat). 12. An arrow is shot straight upward from the ground with an initial velocity of 160 ft/s.
