8 8 Chapter Solutions *.0 reading order velocity acceleration a b c d e f One way of phrasing the answer: The spacing of the successive positions would change with less regularity. Another way: The object would move with some combination of the kinds of motion shown in (a) through (e). Within one drawing, the acceleration vectors would vary in magnitude and direction. *.1 From v f v i + ax, we have ( m/s) 0 + a(0 m), so that a m/s which is times g. (a) Assuming a constant acceleration: a v f v i t 4.0 m/s 8.00 s 5.5 m/s Taking the origin at the original position of the car, x 1 (v i + v f) t 1 (4.0 m/s)(8.00 s) 168 m (c) From v f v i + at, the velocity 10.0 s after the car starts from rest is: v f 0 + (5.5 m/s )(10.0 s) 5.5 m/s

9 Chapter Solutions 9 *.3 (a) x x i 1 (v i + v) t becomes 40 m 1 (v i +.80 m/s)(8.50 s) which yields v i 6.61 m/s a v v i t.80 m/s 6.61 m/s 8.50 s m/s.4 Suppose the unknown acceleration is constant as a car moving at v i 35.0 mi/h comes to a v 0 stop in x x i 40.0 ft. We find its acceleration from v v i + a(x x i ) a (v v i) (x x i ) 0 (35.0 mi/h) 580 ft (40.0 ft) 1 mi 1 h 3.9 ft/s 3600 s Now consider a car moving at v i 70.0 mi/h and stopping to v 0 with a 3.9 ft/s. From the same equation its stopping distance is x x i v v i a 0 (70.0 mi/h) 580 ft ( 3.9 ft/s ) 1 mi 1 h 3600 s 160 ft.5 Given v i 1.0 cm/s when x i 3.00 cm (t 0), and at t.00 s, x 5.00 cm x v i t + 1 at ; x x i v i t + 1 at ; (.00) + 1 a (.00) ; a a cm/s

10 10 Chapter Solutions Goal Solution A body moving with uniform acceleration has a velocity of 1.0 cm/s in the positive x direction when its x coordinate is 3.00 cm. If its x coordinate.00s later is 5.00 cm, what is the magnitude of its acceleration? G: Since the object must slow down as it moves to the right and then speeds up to the left, the acceleration must be negative and should have units of cm/s. O: First we should sketch the problem to see what is happening: x (cm) initial final Here we can see that the object travels along the x-axis, first to the right, slowing down, and then speeding up as it travels to the left in the negative x direction. We can show the position as a function of time with the notation: x(t) x(0) 3.00 cm, x(.00) 5.00 cm, and v(0) 1.0 cm/s A: Use the kinematic equation x x i v i t + 1 at, and solve for a. a (x x i v i t) t a [ 5.00 cm 3.00 cm (1.0 cm/s)(.00 s)] (.00 s) a 16.0 cm/s L: The acceleration is negative as expected and it has the correct units of cm/s. It also makes sense that the magnitude of the acceleration must be greater than 1 cm/s since this is the acceleration that would cause the object to stop after 1 second and just return the object to its starting point after seconds.

Use these values in the general equation x x i + v i t + 1 at to find x t m/s + 1 (.00 m/s ) t when t is in seconds x (30.0t t )m To find an equation for the velocity, use v v i + at 30.0 m/s + (.00 m/s )t v ( t) m/s

13 Chapter Solutions 13 The distance of travel x becomes a maximum, xmax, when v 0 (turning point in the motion). Use the expressions found in part (a) for v to find the value of t when x has its maximum value: From v ( t) m/s, v 0 when t 15.0 s Then x max (30.0t t ) m (30.0)(15.0) (15.0) 5 m.31 (a) v i 100 m/s, a 5.00 m/s v v i + ax x 1000 m and t 0.0 s 0 (100) (5.00)x No, at this acceleration the plane would overshoot the runway. *.3 In the simultaneous equations we have v x v xi + a x t x x i 1 (v xi + v x) t v x v xi (5.60 m/s )(4.0 s) 6.4 m 1 (v xi + v x )4.0 s So substituting for v xi gives 6.4 m 1 [v x + (5.60 m/s )(4.0 s) + v x ]4.0 s 14.9 m/s v x + 1 (5.60 m/s )(4.0 s) v x 3.10 m/s

15 Chapter Solutions 15 The average velocity is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. The distance traveled during the first 10.0 s is x 1 v t (10.0) 100 m The distance traveled during the next 0.0 s is x v i t + 1 at (0.0)(0.0) m, a being 0 for this interval. The distance traveled in the last 5.00 s is x 3 v t (5.00) 50.0 m The total distance x x 1 + x + x m, and the average velocity is given by v x t m/s *.36 Using the equation x v i t + 1 at yields x 0.0(40.0) 1.00(40.0) / 0, which is obviously wrong. The error occurs because the equation used is for uniformly accelerated motion, which this is not. The acceleration is 1.00 m/s for the first 0.0 s and 0 for the last 0.0 s. The distance traveled in the first 0.0 s is: x v i t + 1 at (0.0)(0.0) 1.00(0.0 )/ 00 m During the last 0.0 s, the train is at rest. Thus, the total distance traveled in the 40.0 s interval is 00 m..37 (a) a v v i t 63(580/3600) ft/s 0 m/s x v i t + 1 at (63)(580/3600)(1.40) 1 66(1.40) 649 ft 198 m.38 We have v i m/s, v m/s, x x i m (a) x x i 1 (v i + v) t t (x x i) v i + v ( m) m/s m/s s

Then, the acceleration at all times during the flight is that due to gravity, a g 9.80 m/s. During the flight, Goff went 1 mile (1609 m) up and then 1 mile back down. Determine his speed just after launch by considering his upward flight: v v i + a(y y i ) 0 v i (9.80 m/s )(1609 m) v i 178 m/s His time in the air may be found by considering his motion from just after launch to just before impact: y y i v i t + 1 at 0 (178 m/s)t 1 ( 9.80 m/s ) t The root t 0 describes launch; the other root, t 36. s, describes his flight time.

19 Chapter Solutions 19 *.45 The bill starts from rest v i 0 and falls with a downward acceleration of 9.80 m/s (due to gravity). Thus, in 0.0 s it will fall a distance of y v i t 1 gt 0 (4.90 m/s )(0.0 s) 0.0 m This distance is about twice the distance between the center of the bill and its top edge ( 8 cm). Thus, David will be unsuccessful. Goal Solution Emily challenges her friend David to catch a dollar bill as follows. She holds the bill vertically, as in Figure P.45, with the center of the bill between David s index finger and thumb. David must catch the bill after Emily releases it without moving his hand downward. If his reaction time is 0. s, will he succeed? Explain your reasoning. G: David will be successful if his reaction time is short enough that he can catch the bill before it falls half of its length (about 8 cm). Anyone who has tried this challenge knows that this is a difficult task unless the catcher cheats by anticipating the moment the bill is released. Since David s reaction time of 0. s is typical of most people, we should suspect that he will not succeed in meeting Emily s challenge. O: Since the bill is released from rest and experiences free fall, we can use the equation y 1 gt to find the distance y the bill falls in t 0. s A: y 1 (9.80 m/s )(0. s) m > 0.08 m Since the bill falls below David s fingers before he reacts, he will not catch it. L: It appears that even if David held his fingers at the bottom of the bill (about 16 cm below the top edge), he still would not catch the bill unless he reduced his reaction time by tensing his arm muscles or anticipating the drop. *.46 At any time t, the position of the ball released from rest is given by y 1 h 1 gt. At time t, the position of the ball thrown vertically upward is described by y v i t 1 gt. The time at which the first ball has a position of y 1 h/ is found from the first equation as h/ h 1 gt, which yields t h/g. To require that the second ball have a position of y h/ at this time, use the second equation to obtain h/ v i h/g 1 g(h/g). This gives the required initial upward velocity of the second ball as v i gh.

A fan observes that it requires 3.00 s for the ball to reach its maximum height. Find (a) its initial velocity and the maximum height it reaches. G: We can expect the initial speed of the ball to be somewhat greater than the speed of the pitch, which might be about 60 mph (~30 m/s), so an initial upward velocity off the bat of somewhere between 0 and 100 m/s would be reasonable. We also know that the length of a ball field is about 300 ft. (~100m), and a pop-fly usually does not go higher than this distance, so a maximum height of 10 to 100 m would be reasonable for the situation described in this problem. O: Since the ball s motion is entirely vertical, we can use the equation for free fall to find the initial velocity and maximum height from the elapsed time. A: Choose the initial point when the ball has just left contact with the bat. Choose the final point at the top of its flight. In between, the ball is in free fall for t 3.00 s and has constant acceleration, a -g m/s. Solve the equation v yf v yi gt for v yi when v yf 0 (when the ball reaches its maximum height). (a) v yi v yf + gt 0 + (9.80 m/s )(3.00 s) 9.4 m/s (upward) The maximum height in the vertical direction is y f v yi t + 1 at (9.4 m/s)(3.00 s) + 1 ( 9.80 m/s )(3.00 s) 44.1 m L: The calculated answers seem reasonable since they lie within our expected ranges, and they have the correct units and direction. We must remember that it is possible to solve a problem like this correctly, yet the answers may not seem reasonable simply because the conditions stated in the problem may not be physically possible (e.g. a time of 10 seconds for a pop fly would not be realistic).

34 34 Chapter Solutions.73 The distance x and y are always related by x + y L. Differentiating this equation with respect to time, we have x dx + y dy 0 y Now dy is v B, the unknown velocity of B; and dx v. B x From the equation resulting from differentiation, we have dy x dx y x y ( v) y O L α x A v But y x tan α so v B 1 tan α v When α 60.0, v B v tan 60.0 v v Goal Solution Two objects, A and B, are connected by a rigid rod that has a length L. The objects slide along perpendicular guide rails, as shown in Figure P.73. If A slides to the left with a constant speed v, find the velocity of B when α G: The solution to this problem may not seem obvious, but if we consider the range of motion of the two objects, we realize that B will have the same speed as A when α 45, and when α 90, then v B 0. Therefore when α 60, we should expect v B to be between 0 and v. O: Since we know a distance relationship and we are looking for a velocity, we might try differentiating with respect to time to go from what we know to what we want. We can express the fact that the distance between A and B is always L, with the relation: x + y L. By differentiating this equation with respect to time, we can find v B dy/ in terms of dx/ v A v. A: Differentiating x + y L gives us x dx + y dy 0 Substituting and solving for the speed of B: v B dy x dx y x y ( v) Now from the geometry of the figure, we notice that y x tan α, so v v B tan α v When α 60.0, v B tan 60 v 0.577v (B is moving up) 3 L: Our answer seems reasonable since we have specified both a magnitude and direction for the velocity of B, and the speed is between 0 and v in agreement with our earlier prediction. In this and many other physics problems, we can find it helpful to examine the limiting cases that define boundaries for the answer.
