CHAPTER 1: Introduction, Measurement, Estimating Responses to Questions 1.

(a) A particular person’s foot. Merits: reproducible. Drawbacks: not accessible to the general public; not invariable (could change size with age, time of day, etc.); not indestructible. (b) Any person’s foot. Merits: accessible. Drawbacks: not reproducible (different people have different size feet); not invariable (could change size with age, time of day, etc.); not indestructible. Neither of these options would make a good standard.

2.

The distance in miles is given to one significant figure, and the distance in kilometers is given to five significant figures! The value in kilometers indicates more precision than really exists or than is meaningful. The last digit represents a distance on the same order of magnitude as a car’s length! The sign should perhaps read “7.0 mi (11 km),” where each value has the same number of significant figures, or “7 mi (11 km),” where each value has about the same % uncertainty.

3.

The number of digits you present in your answer should represent the precision with which you know a measurement; it says very little about the accuracy of the measurement. For example, if you measure the length of a table to great precision, but with a measuring instrument that is not calibrated correctly, you will not measure accurately. Accuracy is a measure of how close a measurement is to the true value.

4.

If you measure the length of an object and you report that it is “4,” you haven’t given enough information for your answer to be useful. There is a large difference between an object that is 4 meters long and one that is 4 km long. Units are necessary to give meaning to a numerical answer.

5.

You should report a result of 8.32 cm. Your measurement had three significant figures. When you multiply by 2, you are really multiplying by the integer 2, which is an exact value. The number of significant figures is determined by the measurement.

6.

The correct number of significant figures is three: sin 30.0º = 0.500.

7.

Useful assumptions include the population of the city, the fraction of people who own cars, the average number of visits to a mechanic that each car makes in a year, the average number of weeks a mechanic works in a year, and the average number of cars each mechanic can see in a week. (a) There are about 800,000 people in San Francisco. Assume that half of them have cars. If each of these 400,000 cars needs servicing twice a year, then there are 800,000 visits to mechanics in a year. If mechanics typically work 50 weeks a year, then about 16,000 cars would need to be seen each week. Assume that on average, a mechanic can work on 4 cars per day, or 20 cars a week. The final estimate, then, is 800 car mechanics in San Francisco. (b) Answers will vary. But following the same reasoning, the estimate is 1/1000 of the population.

Responses to MisConceptual Questions 1.

(c) As stated in the text, scientific laws are descriptive – they are meant to describe how nature behaves. Since our understanding of nature evolves, so do the laws of physics, when evidence can convince the community of physicists. The laws of physics are not permanent, and are not subject to political treaties. In fact, there have been major changes in the laws of physics since 1900 – particularly due to relativity and quantum mechanics. The laws of physics apply in chemistry and other scientific fields, since those areas of study are based on physics. Finally, the laws of physics are man-made, not a part of nature. They are our “best description” of nature as we currently understand it. As stated in the text, “Laws are not lying there in nature, waiting to be discovered.”

2.

(e) The first product is 142.08 m, which is only accurate to the 10’s place, since 37 m/s has only two significant figures. The second product is 74.73 m, which is only accurate to the 1’s place, since 5.3 s has only two significant figures. Thus the sum of the two terms can only be accurate to the 10’s place. 142.08 + 74.73 = 216.81, which to the 10’s place is 220 m.

3.

(a) The total number of digits present does not determine the precision, as the leading zeros in (c) and (d) are only place holders. Rewriting all the measurements in units of meters shows that (a) implies a precision of 0.0001m, (b) and (c) both imply a precision of 0.001 m, and (d) implies a precision of 0.01 m. Note that since the period is shown, the trailing zeros are significant. If all the measurements are expressed in meters, (a) has 4 significant figures, (b) and (c) each have 3 significant figures, and (d) has 2 significant figures.

4.

(b) The leading zeros are not significant. Rewriting this number in scientific notation, 7.8  10−3 , shows that it only has two significant digits.

5.

(b) When you add or subtract numbers, the final answer should contain no more decimal places than the number with the fewest decimal places. Since 25.2 has one decimal place, the answer must be rounded to one decimal place, or to 26.6. Thus the answer has 3 significant figures.

6.

(b) The word “accuracy” is often misused. If a student repeats a measurement multiple times and obtains the same answer each time, it is often assumed to be accurate. In fact, students are frequently given an “ideal” number of times to repeat the experiment for “accuracy.” However, systematic errors may cause each measurement to be inaccurate. A poorly working instrument may also limit the accuracy of your measurement.

7.

(a) Quoting the textbook, “precision” refers to the repeatability of the measurement using a given instrument. Precision and accuracy are often confused. “Accuracy” is defined by answer (b).

8.

(d) This addresses misconceptions about squared units and about which factor should be in the numerator of the conversion. This error can be avoided by treating the units as algebraic symbols that must be cancelled out.

9.

(e) When making estimates, the estimator may frequently believe that their answers are more significant than they actually are. This question helps the estimator realize what an order-ofmagnitude estimation is NOT supposed to accomplish.

10. (d) This addresses the fact that the generic unit symbol, like [L], does not indicate a specific system of units. © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved.

To add values with significant figures, adjust all values to be added so that their exponents are all the same. ( 9.2  103 s ) + ( 6.3  104 s ) + ( 0.008  106 s ) = ( 9.2  103 s ) + ( 63  103 s ) + (8  103 s ) = ( 9.2 + 63 + 8 )  103 s = 80.2  103 s = 8.0  104 s

When adding, keep the least accurate value, and so keep to the “ones” place in the last set of parentheses. 7.

When you multiply, the result should have as many digits as the number with the least number of significant digits used in the calculation.

Keeping 2 significant figures in the angle, and expressing the angle in radians, the largest angle that has the same sine and tangent is 0.24 radians . In degrees, the largest angle (keeping 2 significant figure) is 12 .

10. (a) To find the number of students, multiply the sample size times the percentage. ( 215 students )( 0.372 ) = 79.98 students But the number of students must be an integer, so the number is 80 students . (b) The original statement gave the percentage with too many significant figures. The calculation is 80 / 215 = 0.372093023… , but that result should only have 2 significant figures, since the value of 80 (as an integer, and not an estimate) has only 2 significant figures. The percentage should have been quoted as 37%. That would still give the correct number of students. ( 215 students )( 0.37 ) = 79.55 students, which rounds to 80 students. 11.

In order to find the approximate uncertainty in the area, calculate the area for the specified radius, the minimum radius, and the maximum radius. Subtract the extreme areas.

A = 12 ( Amax − Amin ) = 12 8.49  109 cm 2 − 7.85  109 cm 2 = 0.32  109 cm 2

Note that the last value above has only 1 significant figure. Thus the area should be quoted as

A = (8.2  0.3)  109 cm2 . 13. In order to find the approximate uncertainty in the volume, calculate the volume for the minimum radius and the volume for the maximum radius. Subtract the extreme volumes. The uncertainty in the volume is then half of this variation in volume. 3 3 Vspecified = 43  rspecified = 43  ( 0.64 m ) = 1.098 m3 3 Vmin = 43  rmin = 43  ( 0.60 m ) = 0.905 m 3 3

Technically, pounds and mass measure two separate properties. To make this conversion, we have to assume that we are at a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s2.

One mile is 1609 m, according to the unit conversions in the front of the textbook. Thus it is 109 m longer than a 1500-m race. The percentage difference is calculated here. 109 m  100% = 7.3% 1500 m 27. From Example 1–6, the thickness of a page of this book is about 6  10−5 m. The wavelength of orange krypton-86 light is found from the fact that 1,650,763.73 wavelengths of that light is the definition of the meter.  6  10−5 m   1, 650, 763.73 wavelengths  1page    = 99  100 1m  1page    28. The original definition of the meter was that 1 meter was one ten-millionth of the distance from the Earth’s equator to either pole. The distance from the equator to the pole would be one-fourth of the circumference of a perfectly spherical Earth. Thus the circumference would be 40 million meters:

C = 4  107 m . We use the circumference to find the radius. C = 2 r → r =

4  107 m

= 6.37  106 m 2 2 The value in the front of the textbook is 6.38  106 m. Since the circumference and the radius are proportional to each other, the % error would be the same in both cases. We calculate it for the radius. R 0.01  106 m =  100 = 0.1567  0.2 % R 6.38  106 m

If the aisle is 1.5 m wide, then about 1/4 of the floor space is covered by shelving. The number of books on a single shelf level is then 1 4

( 3000 mi )(1 km 0.621 mi )(1 hr 10 km )  500 hr

Of course, it would take more time on the clock for a runner to run across the U.S. The runner obviously could not run for 500 hours non-stop. If he or she could run for 5 hours a day, then it would take about 100 days to cross the country. 38. A commonly accepted measure is that a person should drink eight 8-oz. glasses of water each day. That is about 2 quarts, or 2 liters of water per day. Approximate the lifetime as 70 years.

( 70 y )( 365 d 1 y )( 2 L 1 d )  5  104 L 39. To determine an estimation for the number of cells in the human body we will make several assumptions. First, we assume that the cell is spherical, so we can find its volume using the formula for the volume of a sphere, V = 43  r 3. And then we will assume that the mass of an “average” human is 65 kg, which corresponds to a weight of about 140 lbs. We can use the given density to find the volume of our typical human, and then compare that to the volume of a cell. kg 1m3 1cell cells 65   = 1.24  1014 3 6 − human 1000 kg 43  5  10 m human

(

So for an order-of-magnitude estimate, we would say there are about 1 1014 cells in a human . 40. An NCAA-regulation football field is 360 feet long (including the end zones) and 160 feet wide, which is about 110 meters by 50 meters, or 5500 m2. We assume the mower has a cutting width of 0.5 meters and that a person mowing can walk at about 4.5 km/h, which is about 3 mi/h. Thus the distance to be walked is as follows: area 5500 m 2 d= = = 11000 m = 11 km width 0.5 m 1h  2.5 h to mow the field. At a speed of 4.5 km/h, it will take about 11km  4.5 km

42. In estimating the number of dentists, the assumptions and estimates needed are: • the population of the city • the number of patients that a dentist sees in a day • the number of days that a dentist works in a year • the number of times that each person visits the dentist each year We estimate that a dentist can see 10 patients a day, that a dentist works 225 days a year, and that each person visits the dentist twice per year. (a) For San Francisco, the population is approximately 800,000 (according to the U.S. Census Bureau).

46. The person walks 4 km h , 12 hours each day. The radius of the Earth is about 6380 km, and the distance around the Earth at the equator is the circumference, 2 REarth. We assume that the person can “walk on water,” so we ignore the existence of the oceans.  1 h   1 day  = 835days  800 days 2 ( 6380 km )     4 km   12 h  47. We approximate the jar as a cylinder with a uniform cross-sectional area. In counting the jelly beans in the top layer, we find about 25 jelly beans. Thus we estimate that one layer contains about 25 jelly beans. In counting vertically, we see that there are about 20 rows. Thus we estimate that there are 25  20 = 500 jellybeans in the jar. 48. The maximum number of buses would be needed during rush hour. We assume that a bus can hold 50 passengers. (a) The current population of Washington, D.C. is about 660,000 as of 2014 statistics. We estimate that 10% of them ride the bus during rush hour. 1bus 1driver 66, 000 passengers   = 1320 drivers  1000 drivers 50 passengers 1bus (b) For Marion, Indiana, the population is about 30,000. Because the town is so much smaller geographically, we estimate that only 5% of the current population rides the bus during rush hour. 1bus 1driver   30 drivers 1500 passengers  50 passengers 1bus 49. Consider the diagram shown (not to scale). The balloon is a distance h = 300 m above the surface of the Earth, and the tangent line from the balloon height to the surface of the Earth indicates the location of the horizon, a distance d away from the balloon. Use the Pythagorean theorem. ( r + h )2 = r 2 + d 2 → r 2 + 2rh + h 2 = r 2 + d 2

51. Assume that the tires last for 5 years, and so there is a tread wearing of 0.2 cm/year. Assume the average tire has a radius of 40 cm, and a width of 10 cm. Thus the volume of rubber that is becoming pollution each year from one tire is the surface area of the tire times the thickness per year that is wearing. Also assume that there are 1.5  108 automobiles in the country – approximately one automobile for every two people. And there are 4 tires per automobile. The mass wear per year is given by the following calculation. © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved. This material is protected under all copyright laws as they currently exist.

52. In the figure in the textbook, the distance d is perpendicular to the radius that is drawn approximately vertically. Thus there is a right triangle, with legs of d and R, and a hypotenuse of R + h. Since h R, h 2 2 Rh. d 2 + R 2 = ( R + h ) = R 2 + 2 Rh + h 2 → d 2 = 2 Rh + h 2 → d 2  2 Rh → 2

A better measurement gives R = 6.38  106 m. 53. For you to see the Sun “disappear,” your line of sight to the top of the Sun must be tangent to the Earth’s surface. Initially, your eyes are a distance h1 = 20 cm above the sand and you see the first sunset at a (very small) angle of 1 relative to perfectly horizontal. Then you stand up, elevating your eyes to the height h2 = 130 cm. When you stand, your line of sight is tangent to the Earth’s surface at a slightly different angle  2 , so that is the direction to the second sunset. The change in angle  2 − 1 is the angle through which the Sun appears to move relative to the Earth during the time to be measured. The distance d is the distance from your eyes to a point on the horizon where you “see” the sun set. d1

Use the Pythagorean theorem for the following relationship: 2 d 2 + R 2 = ( R + h ) = R 2 + 2 Rh + h 2 → d 2 = 2 Rh + h 2 The distance h is much smaller than the distance R, so h 2 2 Rh which leads to d 2  2 Rh. We also have from the same triangle that d R = tan  , so d = R tan  . Combining these two relationships gives d 2  2 Rh = R 2 tan 2  , so R =

2h tan 2 

.

The change in angle,  =  2 − 1 , can be found from the two heights and the radius of the Earth. The elapsed time between the two sightings can then be found from the change in angle, because we know that a full revolution takes 24 hours. © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved.

A consequence of this result is that when you use a protractor, and you have a fixed uncertainty in the angle ( 0.5o in this case), you should measure the angles from a reference line that gives a large angle measurement rather than a small one. Note above that the angles around 75° had only a 0.2% error in sin , while the angles around 15° had a 3% error in sin . 73. Consider the diagram as shown in the text.

CHAPTER 2: Describing Motion: Kinematics in One Dimension Responses to Questions 1.

A car speedometer measures only speed. It does not give any information about the direction of motion, and so does not measure velocity.

2.

If the velocity of an object is constant, the speed must also be constant. (A constant velocity means that the speed and direction are both constant.) If the speed of an object is constant, the velocity CAN vary. For example, a car traveling around a curve at constant speed has a varying velocity, since the direction of the velocity vector is changing.

3.

If the velocity of an object is constant, the speed and the direction of travel must also be constant. If that is the case, then the average velocity is the same as the instantaneous velocity, because nothing about its velocity is changing. The ratio of displacement to elapsed time will not be changing, no matter the actual displacement or time interval used for the measurement.

4.

There is no general relationship between the magnitude of speed and the magnitude of acceleration. For example, one object may have a large but constant speed. The acceleration of that object is then 0. Another object may have a small speed but be gaining speed, and therefore have a positive acceleration. So in this case the object with the greater speed has the lesser acceleration. Or consider two objects that are dropped from rest at different times. If we ignore air resistance, then the object dropped first will always have a greater speed than the object dropped second, but both will have the same acceleration of 9.80 m/s2.

5.

The accelerations of the motorcycle and the bicycle are the same, assuming that both objects travel in a straight line. Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the change in time. The magnitude of the change in velocity in each case is the same, 10 km/h, so over the same time interval the accelerations will be equal.

6.

Yes, for example, a car that is traveling northward and slowing down has a northward velocity and a southward acceleration.

7.

The velocity of an object can be negative when its acceleration is positive. If we define the positive direction to be to the right, then an object traveling to the left that is slowing down will have a negative velocity with a positive acceleration. The velocity of an object can also be positive when its acceleration is negative. If again we define the positive direction to be to the right, then an object traveling to the right that is slowing down will have a positive velocity and a negative acceleration.

8.

If north is defined as the positive direction, then an object traveling to the south and increasing in speed has both a negative velocity and a negative acceleration. Or, if “up” is defined as the positive direction, then an object falling due to gravity has both a negative velocity and a negative acceleration (if air resistance is ignored).

9.

If the two cars emerge side by side, then the one moving faster is passing the other one. Thus car A is passing car B. With the acceleration data given for the problem, the ensuing motion would be that car A would pull away from car B for a time, but eventually car B would catch up to and pass car A.

Chapter 2

Describing Motion: Kinematics in One Dimension

10. Yes. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity per unit time, or a rate of change in velocity. So, velocity can be increasing while the rate of increase goes down. For example, suppose a car is traveling at 40 km/h and one second later is going 50 km/h. One second after that, the car’s speed is 55 km/h. The car’s speed was increasing the entire time, but its acceleration in the second time interval was lower than in the first time interval. Thus its acceleration was decreasing even as the speed was increasing. Another example would be an object falling WITH air resistance, but with a speed less than its terminal velocity. Let the downward direction be positive. As the object falls, it gains speed, and the air resistance increases. As the air resistance increases, the acceleration of the falling object decreases, and so it gains speed less quickly the longer it falls. 11. If there were no air resistance, the ball’s only acceleration during flight would be the acceleration due to gravity, so the ball would land in the catcher’s mitt with the same speed it had when it left the bat, 120 km/h. Since the acceleration is the same through the entire flight, the time for the ball’s speed to change from 120 km/h to 0 on the way up is the same as the time for its speed to change from 0 to 120 km/h on the way down. In both cases the ball has the same magnitude of displacement. 12. (a) If air resistance is negligible, the acceleration of a freely falling object stays the same as the object falls. The object’s speed increases, but since it increases at a constant rate, the acceleration is constant. (b) In the presence of air resistance, the acceleration decreases. Air resistance increases as the speed increases. If the object falls far enough, the acceleration will become zero and the velocity will become constant. That velocity is often called the terminal velocity. 13. Average speed is the displacement divided by the time. Since the distances from A to B and from B to C are equal, you spend more time traveling at 70 km/h than at 90 km/h, so your average speed should be less than 80 km/h. If the distance from A to B (or B to C) is x km, then the total distance traveled is 2x. The total time required to travel this distance is x/70 h plus x/90 h. Then 2x 2(90)(70) d v= = = = 78.75 km/h  79 km/h. t x 70 + x 90 90 + 70 14. Yes. Consider an object thrown straight up in the air. It has a nonzero acceleration due to gravity for its entire flight (neglecting air resistance). However, at the highest point it momentarily has a zero velocity. A car, at the moment it starts moving from rest, has zero velocity and nonzero acceleration. 15. Yes. Any time the velocity is constant, the acceleration is zero. For example, a car traveling at a constant 90 km/h in a straight line has nonzero velocity and zero acceleration. 16. A rock falling from a cliff has a constant acceleration if air resistance is neglected. An elevator moving from the second floor to the fifth floor making stops along the way does NOT have a constant acceleration. Its acceleration will change in magnitude and direction as the elevator starts and stops. The dish resting on a table has a constant (zero) acceleration. 17. The two conditions are that the motion needs to be near the surface of the Earth, and that there is no air resistance. An example where the second condition is not even a reasonable approximation is that of parachuting. The air resistance caused by the parachute results in the acceleration not being constant, and having values much different than 9.8 m s 2. © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved.

18. The slope of the position versus time curve is the velocity. The object starts at the origin with a constant velocity (and therefore zero acceleration), which it maintains for about 20 s. For the next 10 s, the positive curvature of the graph indicates the object has a positive acceleration; its speed is increasing. From 30 s to 45 s, the graph has a negative curvature; the object uniformly slows to a stop, changes direction, and then moves backwards with increasing speed. During this time interval its acceleration is negative, since the object is slowing down while traveling in the positive direction and then speeding up while traveling in the negative direction. For the final 5 s shown, the object continues moving in the negative direction but slows down, which gives it a positive acceleration. During the 50 s shown, the object travels from the origin to a point 20 m away, and then back 10 m to end up 10 m from the starting position. 19. Initially, the object begins with a speed of 14 m/s, moving in the positive direction with a constant acceleration, until t = 45 s, when it has a velocity of about 37 m/s in the positive direction. The acceleration then decreases, reaching an instantaneous acceleration of 0 at t = 50 s, when the object has its maximum speed of about 38 m/s. The object then begins to slow down, but continues to move in the positive direction. The object stops moving at t = 90 s and stays at rest until t = 108 s. Then the object begins to move in the positive direction again, at first with a larger acceleration, and then a lesser acceleration. At the end of the recorded motion, the object is still moving to the right and gaining speed.

Responses to MisConceptual Questions 1.

(d) It is a common misconception that a positive acceleration always increases the speed, as in (b) and (c). However, when the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions the speed will decrease.

2.

(d) Since the velocity and acceleration are in opposite directions, the object will slow to a stop. However, since the acceleration remains constant, the object will only momentarily stop before moving toward the left.

3.

(c) Since the distances are the same, a common error is to assume that the average speed will be halfway between the two speeds, or 40 km/h. However, it takes the car longer to travel the 4 km at 30 km/h than to travel the other 4 km at 50 km/h. Since more time is spent at 30 km/h the average speed will be closer to 30 km/h than to 50 km/h.

4.

(d) From Eq. 2–12(c), for an object with constant acceleration starting from rest, the final speed is given by v = 2ad . Thus if aB = 4aA, then v B = 2v A.

5.

(a) A common misconception is that the acceleration of an object in free-fall depends upon the motion of the object. If there is no air resistance, the accelerations is the same throughout the flight, even at the top. If the acceleration were 0 at the top, the object would not move since it also has a velocity of 0 at the top. The velocity is constantly changing throughout the flight.

6.

(c) A common misconception is that the acceleration of an object in free-fall depends upon the motion of the object. If there is no air resistance, the accelerations for the two balls are the same magnitude and direction throughout both of their flights.

7.

(a) Since the distance between the rocks increases with time, a common misconception is that the velocities are increasing at different rates. However, both rocks fall under the influence of gravity, so their velocities increase at the same rate.

8.

(e) Both objects experience the same acceleration, so the rock that is dropped first always has a higher speed than the second rock. Since the first rock is always moving faster, it is always getting farther away from the second rock.

9.

(b, c) Each of the given equations are based on Eq. 2–12(a–d). Answer (a) has the acceleration replaced properly with –g, but the initial velocity is downward and as such should be negative. Answer (d) is incorrect because the initial velocity has been inserted for the average velocity. Answers (b) and (c) have the correct signs for each variable and the known values are inserted properly.

10. (a) Increasing speed means that the slope must be getting steeper over time. In graphs (b) and (e) the slope remains constant, so these are cars moving at constant speed. In graph (c), as time increases x decreases. However the rate at which it decreases is also decreasing. This is a car slowing down. In graph (d) the car is moving away from the origin, but again it is slowing down. The only graph in which the slope is increasing with time is graph (a). 11. (c, e) The two lines have different slopes at point A, so they don’t have the same instantaneous velocity or speed. The object represented by the dashed line has traveled more distance, since it has traveled “forward and back” to get to the point represented by A. But they are both at the same position after the same amount of time, and so they have the same average velocity.

Solutions to Problems 1.

The distance of travel (displacement) can be found by rearranging Eq. 2–2 for the average velocity. Also note that the units of the velocity and the time are not the same, so the speed units will be converted.  1h  v = x t → x = vt = ( 85 km h )   ( 2.0s ) = 0.0472 km  47 m  3600 s 

2.

The average speed is given by Eq. 2–1, using d to represent distance traveled.

v = d t = 235 km 2.85 h = 82.5 km h 3.

The average velocity is given by Eq. 2–2. x 8.5 cm − 5.2 cm 3.3cm v= = = = 0.61cm s 3.4 s − ( −2.0 s ) 5.4 s t The average speed cannot be calculated. To calculate the average speed, we would need to know the actual distance traveled, and it is not given. We only have the displacement.

4.

(a) The speed of sound is intimated in the problem as 1 mile per 5 seconds. The speed is calculated as follows. distance  1mi   1610 m  speed = =  = 322 m s  300 m s  time  5s   1 mi  (b) The speed of 322 m s would imply the sound traveling a distance of 966 meters (which is approximately 1 km) in 3 seconds. So the rule could be approximated as 1 km every 3 s .

(b) The greatest velocity will occur when the slope is the highest positive value, which occurs at

t  27 s . (c) The indication of a 0 velocity on a position-time graph is a slope of 0, which occurs at

t  38s . (d)

The object moves in both directions . When the slope is positive, from t = 0 s to t  38 s,

the object is moving in the positive direction. When the slope is negative, from t  38 s to t = 50 s, the object is moving in the negative direction. 18. The v vs. t graph is found by taking the slope of the x vs. t graph. Both graphs are shown here.

20. For the car to pass the train, the car must travel the length of the train AND the distance the train travels. The distance the car travels can thus be written as either d car = vcar t = ( 95 km h ) t or

d car = l train + v train t = 1.50 km + ( 75 km h ) t. To solve for the time, equate these two expressions for

the distance the car travels.

( 95 km h ) t = 1.50 km + ( 75 km h ) t → t =

1.50 km 20 km h

 60 min   = 4.5 min  1h 

Note that this is the same as calculating from the reference frame of the train, in which the car is moving at 20 km/h and must travel the length of the train. The distance the car travels during this time is d = ( 95 km h )( 0.075 h ) = 7.125 km  7.1km . If the train is traveling in the opposite direction from the car, then the car must travel the length of the train MINUS the distance the train travels. Thus the distance the car travels can be written as either d car = ( 95 km h ) t or d car = 1.50 km − ( 75 km h ) t. To solve for the time, equate these two expressions for the distance the car travels. ( 95 km h ) t = 1.50 km − ( 75 km h ) t →

22. The initial velocity is v0 = 15 km h, the final velocity is v = 65 km h, and the displacement is x − x0 = 4.0 km = 4000 m. Find the average acceleration from Eq. 2–12c.

29. We call the location where the cars are initially next to each other x0 = 0. The position of the first

car can be written as x = x0 + v0t + 12 at 2 = 25.0t − 12 ( 2.0 ) t 2 . The position of the second car can be written as x = x0 + v0t + 12 at 2 = 12 ( 2.0 ) t 2 . We equate the two position equations and solve for the time.

25.0t − 12 ( 2.0) t 2 = 12 ( 2.0) t 2 → 25.0t = 2.0t 2 → t = 0 or 12.5 s

The value of 0 is the time when the cars were initially next to each other, so the “next” time they are next to each other is t = 12.5s  13s .

30. Slightly different answers may be obtained since the data comes from reading the graph. (a) The greatest velocity is found at the highest point on the graph, which is at t  48 s . (b) The indication of a constant velocity on a velocity–time graph is a slope of 0, which occurs from t = 90 s to t  108 s . (c) The indication of a constant acceleration on a velocity–time graph is a constant slope, which occurs from t = 0 s to t  42 s , again from t  65 s to t  83 s , and again from t = 90 s to t  108 s . (d) The magnitude of the acceleration is greatest when the magnitude of the slope is greatest, which occurs from t  65 s to t  83 s .

31. Slightly different answers may be obtained since the data comes from reading the graph. We assume that the short, nearly horizontal portions of the graph are the times that shifting is occurring, and those times are not counted as being “in” a certain gear. v 2 24 m s − 14 m s = = 2.5 m s 2 . (a) The average acceleration in 2nd gear is given by a2 = 8 s−4 s t2 (b) The average acceleration in 4th gear is given by a4 =

v 4 t4

=

44 m s − 37 m s 27 s − 16 s

= 0.6 m s 2 .

32. (a) The train’s constant speed is v train = 5.0 m s, and the location of the empty box car as a

function of time is given by xtrain = vtrain t = ( 5.0 m s ) t. The fugitive has v0 = 0 m s and a = 1.4 m s 2 until his final speed is 6.0 m s . The elapsed time during the acceleration is

tacc =

v − v0

=

6.0 m s

= 4.286 s. Let the origin be the location of the fugitive when he starts a 1.4 m s 2 to run. The first possibility to consider is, “Can the fugitive catch the empty box car before he reaches his maximum speed?” During the fugitive’s acceleration, his location as a function of time is given by Eq. 2–12b, xfugitive = x0 + v0t + 12 at 2 = 0 + 0 + 12 1.4 m s 2 t 2 . For him to catch

(

)

( 5.0 m s ) t = 12 (1.4 m s 2 ) t 2 . The solutions of this

the train, we must have xtrain = xfugitive →

are t = 0s, 7.1s. Thus the fugitive cannot catch the car during his 4.286 s of acceleration. Now the equation of motion of the fugitive changes. After the 4.286 s of acceleration, he runs with a constant speed of 6.0 m s . Thus his location is now given (for times t  4.286s ) by the following. 2 xfugitive = 12 1.4 m s 2 ( 4.286s ) + ( 6.0 m s )( t − 4.286s ) = ( 6.0 m s ) t − 12.86 m

(

)

So now, for the fugitive to catch the train, we again set the locations equal. xtrain = xfugitive → ( 5.0 m s ) t = ( 6.0 m s ) t − 12.86 m → t = 12.86 s  13s (b) The distance traveled to reach the box car is given by the following. xfugitive ( t = 12.86s ) = ( 6.0 m s )(12.86s ) − 12.86 m = 64 m 33. The acceleration can be found from Eq. 2–12c.

1200 m = d1 + d 2 = v0t + 12 at 2 + ( v0 + at )(180 − t ) → 1200 m = 180v0 + 180at − 12 at 2 →

Since we must have t  180 s, the solution is t = 6.3s . 48. For the runners to cross the finish line side-by-side means they must both reach the finish line in the same amount of time from their current positions. Take Mary’s current location as the origin. Use Eq. 2–12b. For Sally:

The first time is the time she first crosses the finish line, and so it is the time to be used for the problem. Now find Mary’s acceleration so that she crosses the finish line in that same amount of time. 22 − 4t 22 − 4 ( 4.059 ) 22 = 0 + 4t + 12 at 2 → a = 1 2 = = 0.70 m s 2 For Mary: 2 1 t 4.059 ) 2 2( 49. Define the origin to be the location where the speeder passes the police car. Start a timer at the instant that the speeder passes the police car, and find another time that both cars have the same displacement from the origin. For the speeder, traveling with a constant speed, the displacement is given by the following.  1m s  xs = vs t = (135 km h )   ( t ) = ( 37.5 t ) m  3.6 km h  For the police car, the displacement is given by two components. The first part is the distance traveled at the initially constant speed during the 1 second of reaction time.  1m s  xp1 = v0p (1.00 s ) = ( 95 km h )   (1.00 s ) = 26.39 m  3.6 km h  The second part of the police car’s displacement is that which occurs during the accelerated motion, which lasts for ( t − 1.00 ) s. So this second part of the police car displacement, using Eq. 2–12b, is given as follows. Note that this part of the displacement is NOT VALID for t < 1.00 s. 2 2 xp2 = v0p ( t − 1.00 ) + 12 ap ( t − 1.00 ) = ( 26.39 m s )( t − 1.00 ) + 12 ( 2.60 m s 2 ) ( t − 1.00 )  m   So the total police car displacement is:

xp = xp1 + xp 2 = 26.39 + 26.39 ( t − 1.00 ) + 1.30 ( t − 1.00 )

Now set the two displacements equal, and solve for the time. 26.39 + 26.39 ( t − 1.00 ) + 1.30 ( t − 1.00 ) = 37.5 t 2

The first answer from the quadratic formula is a “fake” answer, because the equation for the police car’s displacement while accelerating, which was used to find that solution, was not valid for times t < 1.00 s. Thus we may ignore that answer. The answer of 10.5 s is the time for the police car to overtake the speeder. As a check on the answer, the speeder travels xs = ( 37.5 m s ) (10.5 s ) = 394 m, and the police car travels xp =  26.39 + 26.39 ( 9.5) + 1.30 ( 9.5 )  m = 394 m.

50. Define the origin to be the location where the speeder passes the police car. Start a timer at the instant that the speeder passes the police car. Both cars have the same displacement 8.00 s after the initial passing by the speeder. But the police car only is accelerating for 7.00 s. For the speeder, traveling with a constant speed, the displacement is given by xs = vs t = ( 8.00vs ) m. For the police car, the displacement is given by two components. The first part is the distance traveled at the initially constant speed during the 1.00 s of reaction time.  1m s  xp1 = v0p (1.00 s ) = ( 95 km h )   (1.00 s ) = 26.39 m  3.6 km h  © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd.

Describing Motion: Kinematics in One Dimension

The second part of the police car displacement is that during the accelerated motion, which lasts for 7.00 s. So this second part of the police car displacement, using Eq. 2–12b, is given by the following. 2 2 xp 2 = v0p ( 7.00 s ) + 12 ap ( 7.00 s ) = ( 26.39 m s )( 7.00 s ) + 12 ( 2.60 m s 2 ) ( 7.00 s ) = 248.43 m Thus the total police car displacement is xp = xp1 + xp2 = ( 26.39 + 248.43) m = 274.82 m. Now set the two displacements equal, and solve for the speeder’s velocity.  3.6 km h  ( 8.00vs ) m = 274.82 m → vs = 34.35 m s = ( 34.35 m s )   = 124 km h  1m s  51. From the given information, we can break the race up into three segments: Segment # 1: Time of 0.15 seconds, no displacement. Segment # 2: Starting speed of 0, final speed v, constant acceleration a, displacement 30.0 m, elapsed time t2 . Thus v = at 2 and 30 m = 12 at 22 . Segment # 3: Constant velocity v, displacement of 370 m, elapsed time t3 . Thus 370 m = v t3 . We also know that t2 + t3 = 54.85s. So we have 4 relationships defining the 4 unknowns of

v , a, t2 , and t3. We solve that system of 4 equations. v = at 2 ; 30 = 12 at 22 ; 370 = vt3 ; t2 + t3 = 54.85

Substitute the 1st equation into the 3rd.

30 = 12 at 22 ; 370 = at 2t3 ; t2 + t3 = 54.85

Divide the 2nd equation by the 1st.

= 4.5s − a −9.80 m s 2 The result of t = 0 s is the time for the original displacement of zero (when the ball was hit), and the result of t = 4.5 s is the time to return to the original displacement. Thus the answer is t = 4.5 seconds. (c) This is an estimate primarily because the effects of the air have been ignored. There is a nontrivial amount of air effect on a baseball as it moves through the air – that’s why pitches like the “curve ball” work, for example. So ignoring the effects of air make this an estimate. Another effect is that the problem says “almost” straight up, but the problem was solved as if the initial velocity was perfectly upwards. Finally, we assume that the ball was caught at the same height as which it was hit. That was not stated in the problem either, so that is an estimate.

60. Choose downward to be the positive direction, and take y0 = 0 to be the height from which the object is released. The initial velocity is v0 = 0, and the acceleration is a = g . Then we can calculate the position as a function of time from Eq. 2–12b, with x replaced by y, as y ( t ) = 12 gt 2 . At the end of each second, the position would be as follows. 2 2 y ( 0 ) = 0 ; y (1) = 12 g ; y ( 2 ) = 12 g ( 2 ) = 4 y (1) ; y ( 3 ) = 12 g ( 3 ) = 9 y (1) The distance traveled during each second can be found by subtracting two adjacent position values from the above list. d (1) = y (1) − y ( 0 ) = y (1) ; d ( 2 ) = y ( 2 ) − y (1) = 3 y (1) ; d ( 3 ) = y ( 3 ) − y ( 2 ) = 5 y (1) We could do this in general.

The 2 parachutist has v0 = 0, a = g = 9.80 m s , and will have y − y0 = 3800 m − 450 m = 3350 m when she pulls the ripcord.

The pelican has an initial velocity is v0 = 0, an acceleration of a = g , and a final location of y = 16.0 m.

63. Choose upward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be at the throwing location of the stone. The initial velocity is v0 = 15.5 m s , the acceleration is a = −9.80 m s 2 , and the final location is y = −75 m .

The positive answer is the physical answer: t = 5.80 s . (b) Use Eq. 2–12a to find the velocity just before hitting. v = v0 + at = 15.5 m s + ( −9.80 m s 2 ) ( 5.802 s ) = −41.4 m s →

v = 41.4 m s .

(c) The total distance traveled will be the distance up plus the distance down. The distance down will be 75 m more than the distance up. To find the distance up, use the fact that the speed at the top of the path will be 0. Then using Eq. 2–12c we have the following.

Thus the distance up is 12.26 m, the distance down is 87.26 m, and the total distance traveled is 99.5 m . 64. (a) Choose upward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 at the ground. The rocket has v0 = 0, a = 3.2 m s 2 , and y = 725m when it runs out of fuel. Find the velocity of the rocket when it runs out of fuel from Eq. 2–12c, with x replaced by y. 2 v725 = v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) → m

(e) For this part of the problem, the rocket has v0 = 0 m s, a = −9.80 m s 2, and a displacement of −962 m (it falls from a height of 962 m to the ground). Find the velocity upon reaching the Earth from Eq. 2–12c. v 2 = v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) →

v =  v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) =  0 + 2 ( −9.80 m s 2 ) ( −962 m ) = −137.3 m s  −137 m s (f)

The negative root was chosen because the rocket is moving downward, which is the negative direction.

Thus the balloons are coming from 25 m above the ground. 68. Choose upward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be the level from which the ball was thrown. The initial velocity is v 0 , the instantaneous velocity is v = 13 m s, the acceleration is a = −9.80 m s 2, and the location of the window is y = 18 m .

From the distance and time given you can use Eq. 2–12b to find the velocity at the top of the window, vtop . That speed can then be used to find the height from which the stone was dropped.

75. Choose the upward direction to be positive, and y0 = 0 to be the level from which the object is thrown. The initial velocity is v0 and the velocity at the top of the path is v = 0 m s. The height at the top of the path can be found from Eq. 2–12c with x replaced by y. −v 2 v 2 = v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) → y − y0 = 0 . 2a From this we see that the displacement is inversely proportional to the acceleration, and so if the acceleration is reduced by a factor of 6 by going to the Moon, and the initial velocity is unchanged, then the displacement increases by a factor of 6 . © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd.

The initial velocity is v0 = 0, the acceleration is a = 9.80 m s 2 , and the location of the net is y = 18.0 m. Find the speed upon reaching the net from Eq. 2–12c with x replaced by y. v 2 = v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) →

The value of 3.6 must have units of m/s, and is the initial speed of the ball – the speed at t = 0. Note that the ball is initially moving in the negative direction, since – 3.6 is used.

79. (a) The sounds will not occur at equal time intervals because the longer any particular bolt falls, the higher its speed. The bolts all start from rest and all have the same acceleration, so at any moment in time, they will all have the same speed. However, they have different distances to travel in reaching the floor and therefore will be falling for different lengths of time. The farther a bolt falls, and thus the later a bolt hits the tin plate, the longer it has been accelerating and therefore the faster it is moving. (b) With equal distances between bolts, each successive bolt, having fallen a longer time when its predecessor reaches the plate, will have a higher average velocity and thus travel the inter-bolt distance in shorter periods of time. Thus the sounds will occur with smaller and smaller intervals between sounds. Thus the time between “clinks” will decrease as the string falls. (c) To hear the sounds at equal intervals, the bolts would have to be tied at distances corresponding to equal time intervals. The first bolt (call it bolt # 0) is touching the plate. Since each bolt has an initial speed of 0, the distance of fall and time of fall for each bolt are related to each other by di = 12 gti2. For bolt # 1, d1 = 12 gt12. For bolt # 2, we want t 2 = 2t1, so d 2 = 12 gt22 = 12 g ( 2t1 )

on. If the distance from the bolt initially on the pan to the next bolt is d1, then the distance from that bolt to the next one is 3d1, the distance to the next bolt is 5d1, and so on. The accompanying table shows these

relationships in a simpler format. 80. Choose downward to be the positive direction, and the origin to be at the top of the building. The 2 barometer has y0 = 0, v0 = 0, and a = g = 9.8 m s .

(b) The second car needs to travel 165 m before the third light turns red. This car accelerates from v0 = 0 m s to a maximum of v = 11.11m s with a = 2.00 m s 2.

(a) Choose downward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be the level from which the car was dropped. The initial velocity is v0 = 0, the final location is y = H , and the acceleration is a = g . Find the final velocity from Eq. 2–12c, replacing x with y.

The second stone has the same initial conditions, but its elapsed time is t2 = t1 − 1.50 s, and so has velocity and location equations as follows. 2 v2 = g ( t1 − 1.50s ) y2 = 12 g ( t1 − 1.50s ) The second stone reaches a speed of v 2 = 12.0 m s at a time given by the following.

The location of the second stone at that time is 2 2 2 y2 = 12 g ( t1 − 1.50s ) = 12 9.80 m s ( 2.724 − 1.50s ) = 7.34 m.

Thus the distance between the two stones is y1 − y2 = 36.36 m − 7.34 m = 29.0 m . 84. For the motion in the air, choose downward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be at the height of the diving board. Then diver has v0 = 0, (assuming the diver does not jump upward or downward), a = g = 9.80 m s 2, and y = 4.0 m when reaching the surface of the water. Find the diver’s speed at the water’s surface from Eq. 2–12c, with x replaced by y.

v 2 = v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) → v =  v02 + 2a ( y − y0 ) = 0 + 2 ( 9.80 m s 2 ) ( 4.0 m ) = 8.85 m s

For the motion in the water, again choose down to be positive, but redefine y0 = 0 to be at the surface of the water. For this motion, v0 = 8.85 m s , v = 0, and y − y0 = 1.8 m . Find the acceleration from Eq. 2–12c, with x replaced by y.

(c) The police car’s acceleration can be calculated knowing that the police car also had gone a distance of 850 m in a time of 21.86 s. 850 m = 12 a p ( 21.86 s )

(d) The speed of the police car at the overtaking point can be found from Eq. 2–12a. v = v0 + at = 0 + ( 3.558 m s 2 ) ( 21.86 s ) = 77.78 m s  78 m s Note that this is exactly twice the speed of the speeder, and so is 280 km/h. (e) The police officer would not want to pass the car at that high speed, because then he would go past the car for a long distance before being able to pull the speeder over. The police officer would not have a constant acceleration, but instead, once he gets close to the speeder, will start to slow down so as to match the speeder’s velocity and pull in close behind the speeder. 86. Choose downward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be at the height of the bridge. Agent Bond has an initial velocity of v0 = 0, an acceleration of a = g , and will have a displacement of y = 15 m − 3.5 m = 11.5 m. Find the time of fall from Eq. 2–12b with x replaced by y.

y = y0 + v0t + 12 at 2 → t =

If the truck is approaching with v = 25 m s , then he needs to jump when the truck is a distance away given by d = v t = ( 25 m s )(1.532 s ) = 38.3 m. Convert this distance into “poles.” d = ( 38.3 m )(1 pole 25 m ) = 1.53 poles

So he should jump when the truck is about 1.5 poles away from the bridge. 87. Assume that y0 = 0 for each child is the level at which the child loses contact with the trampoline surface. Choose upward to be the positive direction. (a) The second child has v02 = 4.0 m s, a = − g = −9.80 m s 2 , and v = 0 m s at the maximum height position. Find the child’s maximum height from Eq. 2–12c, with x replaced by y. v 2 = v022 + 2a ( y2 − y0 ) → y 2 = y0 +

(b) Since the first child can bounce up to one-and-a-half times higher than the second child, the first child can bounce up to a height of 1.5 ( 0.8163 m ) = 1.224 m = y1 − y0 . Eq. 2–12c is again used to find the initial speed of the first child. v 2 = v012 + 2a ( y1 − y0 ) →

v01 =  v 2 − 2a ( y1 − y0 ) = 0 − 2 ( −9.80 m s 2 ) (1.224 m ) = 4.898 m s  4.9 m s The positive root was chosen since the child was initially moving upward. (c) To find the time that the first child was in the air, use Eq. 2–12b with a total displacement of 0, since the child returns to the original position. y = y0 + v01t1 + 12 at12 → 0 = ( 4.898 m s ) t1 + 12 ( −9.80 m s 2 ) t12 → t1 = 0 s, 0.9996 s The time of 0 s corresponds to the time the child started the jump, so the correct answer is 1.0 s . © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd.

88. First consider the “uphill lie,” in which the ball is being putted down the hill. Choose x0 = 0 to be the ball’s original location, and the direction of the ball’s travel as the positive direction. The final velocity of the ball is v = 0 m s , the acceleration of the ball is a = −1.8 m s 2 , and the displacement of the ball will be x − x0 = 6.0 m for the first case and x − x0 = 8.0 m for the second case. Find the initial velocity of the ball from Eq. 2–12c.

v = v + 2a ( x − x0 ) 2

The range of acceptable velocities for the uphill lie is 4.6 m s to 5.4 m s , a spread of 0.719 m/s if more digits are kept. Now consider the “downhill lie,” in which the ball is being putted up the hill. Use a very similar setup for the problem, with the basic difference being that the acceleration of the ball is now a = −2.6 m s 2. Find the initial velocity of the ball from Eq. 2–12c.

v = v + 2a ( x − x0 ) 2

2 0

 0 − 2 ( −2.6 m s 2 ) ( 6.0 m ) = 5.586 m s  → v0 = v − 2a ( x − x0 ) =  2   0 − 2 ( −2.6 m s ) ( 8.0 m ) = 6.450 m s 2

The range of acceptable velocities for the downhill lie is 5.6 m s to 6.5 m s , a spread of 0.864 m/s if more digits are kept. Because the range of acceptable velocities is smaller for putting down the hill, more control in putting is necessary, and so putting the ball downhill (the “uphill lie”) is more difficult.

Case I: trying to stop. The constraint is, with the braking deceleration of the car ( a = −5.8 m s 2 ) , can the car stop in a 28 m displacement? The 2.0 seconds has no relation to this part of the problem. Using Eq. 2–12c, the distance traveled during braking is as follows.

90. The critical condition is that the total distance covered by the passing car and the approaching car must be less than 500 m so that they do not collide. The passing car has a total displacement composed of several individual parts. These are: i) the 10 m of clear room at the rear of the truck; ii) the 20 m length of the truck; iii) the 10 m of clear room at the front of the truck; and iv) the distance the truck travels. Since the truck travels at a speed of v = 18 m s , the truck will have a displacement of xtruck = (18 m s ) t. Thus the total displacement of the car during passing is xpassing = 40 m + (18 m s ) t. car

To express the motion of the car, we choose the origin to be at the location of the passing car when the decision to pass is made. For the passing car, we have an initial velocity of v0 = 18 m s and an acceleration of a = 0.60 m s 2 . Find xpassing from Eq. 2–12b. car

2 2 40 m + (18 m s ) tpass = (18 m s ) tpass + 12 0.60 m s 2 tpass → 40 m = 12 0.60 m s 2 tpass →

tpass =

80 2 s = 11.55s 0.60

Calculate the displacements of the two cars during this time. xpassing = 40 m + (18 m s )(11.55s ) = 247.9 m car

xapproaching = vapproaching t = ( 25 m s )(11.55s ) = 288.75 m car

car

Thus the two cars together have covered a total distance of 247.9 m + 288.75 m = 536.65 m, which is more than allowed. The car should not pass. 91. For the falling rock, choose downward to be the positive direction, and y0 = 0 to be the height from which the stone is dropped. The initial velocity is v0 = 0 m s, the acceleration is a = g , the final position is y = H , and the time of fall is t1 . Using Eq. 2–12b with y substituting for x, we have H = y0 + v0t + 12 t 2 = 0 + 0 + 12 gt12 . For the sound wave, use the constant speed equation that

Let the throwing height of both objects be the y = 0 location, and so y0 = 0 for both objects. The acceleration of both objects is a = − g . The equation of motion for the rock, using Eq. 2–12b, is yrock = y0 + v0 rock t + 12 at 2 = v0 rock t − 12 gt 2 , where t is the time elapsed from the throwing of the rock. The equation of motion for the ball, 2 being thrown 1.00 s later, is yball = y0 + v0 ball ( t − 1.00s ) + 12 a ( t − 1.00s ) =

v0 ball ( t − 1.00s ) − 12 g ( t − 1.00s ) . Set the two equations equal (meaning the two objects are at the same place) and solve for the time of the collision. 2

yrock = yball → v0 rock t − 12 gt 2 = v0 ball ( t − 1.00 s ) − 12 g ( t − 1.00 s )

yball = v0 ball ( t − 1.00 s ) − 12 g ( t − 1.00 s ) = ( 22.0 m s )( 0.60 s ) − 12 9.80 m s 2 ( 0.60 s ) 2

yball = yrock → v0 ball t − 12 gt 2 = v0 rock ( t − 1.00 s ) − 12 g ( t − 1.00 s )

2

→

( 22.0 m s ) t − 12 ( 9.80 m s 2 ) t 2 = (15.0 m s )( t − 1.00 s ) − 12 ( 9.80 m s 2 ) ( t − 1.00 s ) ( 22.0 m s ) t = (15.0 m s ) t − 15 + 9.8t − 4.9 ( 2.80 m s ) t = 19.9 m → t = 7.11s after the ball was thrown

To find the average speed for the entire race, we must take the total distance divided by the total time. If one lap is a distance of L, then the total distance will be 10 L.

The final position, duration, velocity, and acceleration for the first segment are represented by y1 , t1 , v1 , and a1, respectively.

From the symmetry of the two motions (both motions have speed = 0 at top, have same distance traveled, and have same acceleration), the time for the ball to rise is the same as the time for the ball to fall, 1.4 s. Choose upward to be the positive direction, and the origin to be at the level where the ball was thrown. For the ball, v = 0 at the top of the motion, and a = − g . Find the initial velocity from Eq. 2–12a.

v = v0 + at → v0 = v − at = 0 − ( −9.80 m s 2 ) (1.4 s ) = 13.72 m s  14 m s 99. To find the distance, we divide the motion of the robot into three segments. First, the initial acceleration from rest; second, motion at constant speed; and third, deceleration back to rest.

(c) The bicycles are passing each other at the times when the two graphs cross, because they both have the same position at that time.

For all times after t1 , bicycle A has the highest instantaneous velocity. The largest instantaneous velocity is for bicycle A at the latest time shown on the graph. (e) The bicycles appear to have the same average velocity. If the starting point of the graph for a particular bicycle is connected to the ending point with a straight line, the slope of that line is the average velocity. Both appear to have the same slope for that “average” line. 103. In this problem, note that a  0 and x  0. Take your starting position as 0. Then your position is given by Eq. 2–12b, x1 = vM t + 12 at 2, and the other car’s position is given by x2 = x + v At. Set the two positions equal to each other and solve for the time of collision. If this time is negative or imaginary, then there will be no collision. x1 = x2 → v M t + 12 at 2 = x + v At → 12 at 2 + ( v M − v A ) t − x = 0

CHAPTER 3: Kinematics in Two or Three Dimensions; Vectors Responses to Questions 1.

No, the two velocities are not equal. Velocity is a vector quantity, with a magnitude and direction. If two vectors have different directions, they cannot be equal.

2.

No. The car may be traveling at a constant speed of 60 km/h and going around a curve, in which case it would be accelerating.

3.

(i)

During one year, the Earth travels a distance equal to the circumference of its orbit, but has a displacement of 0 relative to the Sun. (ii) Any kind of cross country “round trip” air travel would result in a large distance traveled, but a displacement of 0. (iii) The displacement for a race car from the start to the finish of the Indianapolis 500 auto race is 0, even though the car has traveled 500 miles.

4.

The length of the displacement vector is the straight-line distance between the beginning point and the ending point of the trip and therefore the shortest distance between the two points. If the path is a straight line, then the length of the displacement vector is the same as the length of the path. If the path is curved or consists of different straight line segments, then the distance from beginning to end will be less than the path length. Therefore, the displacement vector can never be longer than the length of the path traveled, but it can be shorter.

5.

Since both the batter and the ball started their motion at the same location (where the ball was hit) and ended their motion at the same location (where the ball was caught), the displacement of both was the same.

6.

V is the magnitude of the vector V ; it is not necessarily larger than the magnitudes V1 and/or V2. For instance, if V1 and V2 have the same magnitude as each other and are in opposite directions, then V is zero. The magnitude of the sum is dependent on not just the magnitudes V1 and V2 , but also depends on the angle between V1 and V2.

7.

If the two vectors are in the same direction, the magnitude of their sum will be a maximum, and will be 9.5 km. If the two vectors are in the opposite direction, the magnitude of their sum will be a minimum, and will be 0.5 km. If the two vectors are oriented in any other configuration, the magnitude of their sum will be between 0.5 km and 9.5 km.

8.

Two vectors of unequal magnitude can never add to give the zero vector. The only way that two vectors can add up to give the zero vector is if they have the same magnitude and point in exactly opposite directions. However, three vectors of unequal magnitude can add to give the zero vector. As a one-dimensional example, a vector 10 units long in the positive x direction added to two vectors of 4 and 6 units each in the negative x direction will result in the zero vector. In two dimensions, if their sum using the tail-to-tip method gives a closed triangle, then the vector sum will be zero. See the diagram, in which A + B + C = 0

(a) The magnitude of a vector can equal the length of one of its components if the other components of the vector are all 0; i.e., if the vector lies along one of the coordinate axes. (b) The magnitude of a vector can never be less than one of its components, because each component contributes a positive amount to the overall magnitude, through the Pythagorean relationship. The square root of a sum of squares is never less than the absolute value of any individual term.

10. The odometer and the speedometer of a car both measure scalar quantities (distance and speed, respectively). 11. To find the initial speed, use the slingshot to shoot the rock directly horizontally (no initial vertical speed) from a height of 1 meter (measured with the meter stick). The vertical displacement of the rock can be related to the time of flight by Eq. 2–12b. Take downward to be positive.

(

)

y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 at 2 → 1 m = 12 gt 2 → t = 2 (1 m ) 9.8 m s 2 = 0.45 s. Measure the horizontal range R of the rock with the meter stick. Then, if we measure the horizontal range R, we know that R = v x t = v x ( 0.45 s ) , and so v x = R 0.45 s, which is the speed the slingshot imparts to the rock. The only measurements are the height of fall and the range, both of which can be measured by a meter stick. 12. The arrow should be aimed above the target, because gravity will deflect the arrow downward from a horizontal or “line of sight” flight path. The angle of aim (above the horizontal) should increase as the distance from the target increases, because gravity will have more time to act in deflecting the arrow from a straight-line path. If we assume that the arrow was shot from the same height as the target, then the “level horizontal range” formula is applicable: R = v02 sin 2 0 g →  = 12 sin −1 ( Rg v02 ). As the range and hence the argument of the inverse sine function increases, the angle increases. 13. (a) In Fig. 3–22, the object is always moving. It never stops, not even instantaneously. Thus, there is no location where v = 0. (b) v y = 0 at the highest point of the motion. (c) The object has a constant horizontal velocity. Thus, there is no location where v x = 0. 14. If the bullet was fired from the ground, then the y-component of its velocity slowed considerably by the time it reached an altitude of 2.0 km, because of both the downward acceleration due to gravity and air resistance. The x-component of its velocity would have slowed due to air resistance as well. Therefore, the bullet could have been traveling slowly enough to be caught. 15. The balloons will hit each other, although not along the line of sight from you to your friend. If there were no acceleration due to gravity, the balloons would hit each other along the line of sight. Gravity causes each balloon to accelerate downward from that “line of sight” path, each with the same acceleration. Thus each balloon falls below the line of sight by the same amount at every instant along their flight, and so they collide. This situation is similar to Conceptual Example 3–9, and to Problem 58. 16. The horizontal component of the velocity stays constant in projectile motion, assuming that air resistance is negligible. Thus the horizontal component of velocity 1.0 seconds after launch will be the same as the horizontal component of velocity 2.0 seconds after launch. In both cases the horizontal velocity will be given by v x = v0 cos  = ( 30 m s )( cos 30 ) = 26 m s . © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved.

17. A projectile has the least speed at the top of its path. At that point the vertical speed is zero. The horizontal speed remains constant throughout the flight, if we neglect the effects of air resistance. 18. (a) Cannonball A, with the larger angle, will reach a higher elevation. It has a larger initial vertical velocity, and so by Eq. 2–12c it will rise higher before the vertical component of velocity is 0. (b) Cannonball A, with the larger angle, will stay in the air longer. It has a larger initial vertical velocity, and so takes more time to decelerate to 0 and start to fall. (c) The cannonball with a launch angle closest to 45 will travel the farthest. The range is a maximum for a launch angle of 45, and decreases for angles either larger or smaller than 45. 19. (a) The ball lands at the same point from which it was thrown inside the train car – back in the thrower’s hand. (b) If the car accelerates, the ball will land behind the thrower’s hand. (c) If the car decelerates, the ball will land in front of the thrower’s hand. (d) If the car rounds a curve (assume it curves to the right), then the ball will land to the left of the thrower’s hand. (e) The ball will be slowed by air resistance, and so will land behind the thrower’s hand. 20. Your reference frame is that of the train you are riding. If you are traveling with a relatively constant velocity (not over a hill or around a curve or drastically changing speed), then you will interpret your reference frame as being at rest. Since you are moving forward faster than the other train, the other train is moving backwards relative to you. Seeing the other train go past your window from front to rear makes it look like the other train is going backwards. 21. Both rowers need to cover the same “cross river” distance. The rower with the greatest speed in the “cross river” direction will be the one that reaches the other side first. The current has no bearing on the time to cross the river because the current doesn’t help either of the boats move across the river. Thus the rower heading straight across will reach the other side first. All of his “rowing effort” has gone into crossing the river. For the upstream rower, some of his “rowing effort” goes into battling the current, and so his “cross river” speed will be only a fraction of his rowing speed. 22. When you stand still under the umbrella in a vertical rain, you are in a cylinder-shaped volume in which there is no rain. The rain has no horizontal component of velocity, and so the rain cannot move from outside that cylinder into it. You stay dry. But as you run, you have a forward horizontal velocity relative to the rain, and so the rain has a backwards horizontal velocity relative to you. It is the same as if you were standing still under the umbrella but the rain had some horizontal component of velocity towards you. The perfectly vertical umbrella would not completely shield you.

Responses to MisConceptual Questions 1.

(c) The shortest possible resultant will be 20 units, which occurs when the vectors point in opposite directions. Since 0 units and 18 units are less than 20 units, (a) and (b) cannot be correct answers. The largest possible result will be 60 units, which occurs when the vectors point in the same direction. Since 64 units and 100 units are greater than 60 units, (d) and (e) cannot be correct answers. Answer (c) is the only choice that falls between the minimum and maximum vector lengths.

2.

(a) The components of a vector make up the two legs of a right triangle when the vector is the hypotenuse. The legs of a right triangle cannot be longer than the hypotenuse, therefore (c) and (d) cannot be correct answers. Only when the vector is parallel to the component, is the

Kinematics in Two or Three Dimensions; Vectors

magnitude of the vector equal to the magnitude of the component, as in (b). For all other vectors the magnitude of the component is less than the magnitude of the vector. 3.

(b) If you turned 90, as in (a), your path would be that of a right triangle. The distance back would be the hypotenuse of that triangle, which would be longer than 100 m. If you turned by only 30, as in (c), your path would form an obtuse triangle, the distance back would have to be greater than if you had turned 90, and therefore it too would be greater than 100 m. If you turned 180, as in (d), you would end up back at your starting point, not 100 m away. Three equal distances of 100 m would form an equilateral triangle, so (b) is the correct answer.

4.

(b) B and A share a common origin point, and B and C share a common terminal point. Thus B = A + C.

5.

(c) The displacement is not 0, so the magnitude of the average velocity must be greater than 0, and so (a) is incorrect. It is impossible for the magnitude of the average velocity to be larger than the average speed of 10 m/s, and so (d) is incorrect. The only way for (b) to be correct would be if the object was traveling in a straight line. Thus (c) must be the correct answer. The displacement along a quarter of a circle is shorter than the actual distance traveled (the chord of the circle is less than the arc length), and so the average velocity is less than the average speed.

6.

(a) The bullet falls due to the influence of gravity, not due to air resistance. Therefore (b) and (c) are incorrect. Inside the rifle the barrel prevents the bullet from falling, so the bullet does not begin to fall until it leaves the barrel.

7.

(b) Assuming that we ignore air resistance, the ball is in free-fall after it leaves the bat. If the answer were (a) the ball would continue to accelerate forward and would not return to the ground. If the answer were (c) the ball would slow to a stop and return backwards toward the bat.

8.

(b) If we ignore air friction, the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity are independent of each other. The vertical components of the two balls will be equal when the balls reach ground level. The ball thrown horizontally will have a horizontal component of velocity in addition to the vertical component. Therefore, it will have the greater speed.

9.

(c) Both will hit the floor at the same time. Both were launched at the same time, neither had an initial vertical velocity, and both have the same vertical acceleration. The time of flight is determined by the vertical motion, and so is the same for both.

10. (c) Both you and the ball have the same constant horizontal velocity. Therefore in the time it takes the ball to travel up to its highest point and return to ground level, your hand and the ball have traveled the same horizontal distance, and the ball will land back in your hand. 11. (d) The time of flight and the maximum height are both determined by the vertical component of the initial velocity. Since all three kicks reach the same maximum height, they must also have the same time of flight. The horizontal components of the initial velocity are different, which accounts for them traveling different distances. 12. (c) The baseball is in projectile motion during the entire flight. In projectile motion the acceleration is downward and constant; it is never zero. Therefore, (a) is incorrect. Since the ball was hit high and far, it must have had an initial horizontal component of velocity. In projectile motion the horizontal component of velocity is constant, so at the highest point the © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd. All rights reserved.

magnitude of the velocity cannot be zero, and thus (b) is incorrect. However, at the highest point, the vertical component of velocity is zero, so the magnitude of the velocity has a minimum at the highest point. So, (c) is the correct answer. 13. (b) Both the monkey and bullet fall at the same rate due to gravity. If the gun was pointed directly at the monkey and gravity did not act upon either the monkey or bullet, the bullet would hit the monkey. Since both start falling at the same time and fall at the same rate, the bullet will still hit the monkey. 14. (b, e) In projectile motion the acceleration is vertical, so the x velocity is constant throughout the motion, so (a) is valid. The acceleration is that of gravity, which, when up is positive, is a constant negative value, so (b) is not valid and (c) is valid. At the highest point in the trajectory the vertical velocity is changing from a positive to a negative value. At this point the y component of velocity is zero, so (d) is valid. However, the x component of the velocity is constant, but not necessarily zero, so (e) is not valid. 15. (a) The maximum relative speed between the two cars occurs when they are traveling in opposite directions. This maximum speed would be the sum of their speeds relative to the ground or 20 m/s. Since the two cars are traveling perpendicular to each other (not in opposite directions) their relative speed must be less than the maximum relative speed.

Note that, since the acceleration of this object is constant, the average velocity over the time interval is equal to the instantaneous velocity at the midpoint of the time interval. 21. (a) Average velocity is displacement divided by elapsed time. Since the displacement is not known, the average velocity cannot be determined . A special case exists in the case of constant acceleration, where the average velocity is the numeric average of the initial and final velocities. But this is not specified as motion with constant acceleration, and so that special case cannot be assumed. (b) Define east as the positive x-direction, and north as the positive y-direction.

The horizontal speed (which is the initial speed) is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x = v x t → v x = x t = 9.5 m 1.237 s = 7.7 m s 35. Choose downward to be the positive y-direction. The origin is the point where the ball is thrown from the roof of the building. In the vertical direction v y 0 = 0, y0 = 0, and a y = 9.80 m s 2. The initial horizontal velocity is 10.8 m/s and the horizontal range is 21.0 m. The time of flight is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x = v x t → t = x v x = ( 21.0 m ) (10.8 m s ) = 1.944 s The vertical displacement, which is the height of the building, is found by applying Eq. 2–12b to the vertical motion. 2 y = y0 + v y 0 t + 12 a y t 2 → y = 0 + 0 + 12 ( 9.80 m s 2 ) (1.944 s ) = 18.5 m 36. Choose the point at which the football is kicked as the origin, and choose upward to be the positive y-direction. When the football reaches the ground again, the y-displacement is 0. For the football, 2 v y 0 = (18.0sin 31.0 ) m s, a y = −9.80 m s , and the final y-velocity will be the opposite of the starting y-velocity. Use Eq. 2–12a to find the time of flight. v y − v y 0 ( −18.0 sin 31.0 ) m s − (18.0 sin 31.0 ) m s = = 1.89 s v y = v y 0 + at → t = a −9.80 m s 2 37.

2 0 = sin −1 0.5799 →  0 = 18, 72

There are two angles because each angle gives the same range. If one angle is  = 45 +  , then  = 45 −  is also a solution. The two paths are shown in the graph. 38. When shooting the gun vertically, half the time of flight is spent moving upwards. Thus the upwards flight takes 1.7 seconds. Choose upward as the positive y-direction. Since at the top of the flight, the vertical velocity is zero, find the launching velocity from Eq. 2–12a. v y = v y 0 + at → v y 0 = v y − at = 0 = ( 9.80 m s 2 ) (1.7 s ) = 16.66 m s Using this initial velocity and an angle of 45o in the level horizontal range formula derived in the text will give the maximum range for the gun.

The initial velocity of the projectile is v 0 , the launching angle is  0 , a y = − g, and v y 0 = v0 sin 0 . (a) The maximum height is found from Eq. 2–12c with v y = 0 at the maximum height.

x = v x t = ( v0 cos  0 ) t = ( 38.8 m s )( cos 42.2 )( 5.3189 s ) = 153 m

(d) The velocity of the projectile 1.50 s after firing is found as the vector sum of the horizontal and vertical velocities at that time. The horizontal velocity is a constant v 0 cos  0 =

( 38.8 m s )( cos 42.2 ) = 28.74 m s. The vertical velocity is found from Eq. 2–12a. v y = v y 0 + at = v0 sin  0 − gt = ( 38.8 m s ) sin 42.2 − ( 9.80 m s 2 ) (1.50 s ) = 11.36 m s

40. First, we find the vertical component of the launch speed using the fact that she rises 1.2 m above the launch point, and that her vertical speed at that height is 0.

Next, find the time of flight knowing the starting vertical velocity and the total vertical displacement, using Eq. 2–12b. Take the water surface to be y = 0. y = y0 + v y 0 t + 12 a y t 2 → 0 = 2.0 + 4.85t + 12 −9.80 m s 2 t 2 → 4.90t 2 − 4.85t − 2.0 = 0

41, First use the level horizontal range formula to find the launching speed for the maximum range, using 45. R=

v02 sin 2 0 g

→ v0 =

Rmax g

sin  2 ( 45 )

Then use the level horizontal range formula again to find the launching angle for the speed found above, with the given range. v 2 sin 2 0 Rg Rg 68 m R= 0 → sin 2 0 = 2 = = = 0.7158 → 2 0 = 45.71, 134.29 g Rmax g 95 m v0

 0 = 22.86, 67.15  23, 67 42. Choose the origin to be at ground level, under the place where the projectile is launched, and upwards to be the positive y direction. For the projectile, v0 = 62.0 m s,  0 = 35.0, a y = − g , y0 = 125 m, and v y 0 = v0 sin 0 .

(a) The time taken to reach the ground is found from Eq. 2–12b, with a final height of 0. y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 a y t 2 → 0 = y0 + v0 sin 0t − 12 gt 2 → t=

( −35.56 m s ) + 2450 m 2 s 2 2

−9.80 m s 2

= 9.848s, − 2.590 s = 9.85s

Choose the positive time since the projectile was launched at time t = 0. (b) The horizontal range is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x = v x t = ( v0 cos  0 ) t = ( 62.0 m s ) ( cos 35.0 ) ( 9.848 s ) = 5.00  10 2 m

(c) At the instant just before the particle reaches the ground, the horizontal component of its velocity is the constant v x = v0 cos  0 = ( 62.0 m s ) cos 35.0 = 50.8 m s . The vertical component is found from Eq. 2–12a. v y = v y 0 + at = v0 sin  0 − gt = ( 62.0 m s ) sin 35.0 − ( 9.80 m s 2 ) ( 9.848s ) = −60.9 m s

(d) The magnitude of the velocity is found from the x and y components calculated in part (c) above.

v = v x2 + v y2 =

( 50.8 m s ) + ( −60.9 m s ) = 79.3m s 2

( 7.80 m ) ( 9.80 m s 2 ) sin 54.0

(b) Now increase the speed by 5.0% and calculate the new range. The new speed would be 9.72 m s (1.05 ) = 10.21m s and the new range would be as follows.

This is an increase of 0.81m (10% increase ) . 44. We choose the origin at the same place as in Example 3–11. With the new definition of the coordinate axes, we have the following data: y0 = 0, y = +1.00 m, v y 0 = −12.0 m s, v x 0 = −16.0 m s, a = 9.80 m s 2 . Use Eq. 2–12b to solve for the time. y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 gt 2 → 1.00 m = 0 − (12.0 m s ) t + 4.90 m s 2 t 2 →

( 4.90 m s ) t − (12.0 m s ) t − (1.00 m ) = 0 2

2

This is the same equation as in Example 3–11, and so we know the appropriate solution is t = 2.53s. We use that time to calculate the horizontal distance the ball travels. x = v x 0 t = ( −16.0 m s )( 2.53s ) = −40.5 m Since the x-direction is now positive to the left, the negative value means that the ball lands 40.5 m to the right of where it departed the punter’s foot. 45. (a) Choose the origin to be the location where the car leaves the ramp, and choose upward to be the positive y-direction. At the end of its flight over the 8 cars, the car must be at y = −1.5m. Also for the car, v y 0 = 0, a y = − g , v x = v0 , and x = 22 m. The time of flight is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity: x = v x t → t = x v0 . That expression for the time is used in Eq. 2–12b for the vertical motion. 2 y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 a y t 2 → y = 0 + 0 + 12 ( − g )( x v0 ) → v0 =

(b) Again choose the origin to be the location where the car leaves the ramp, and choose upward to be the positive y-direction. The y-displacement of the car at the end of its flight over the 8 cars must again be y = −1.5 m. For the car, v y 0 = v0 sin 0 , a y = − g , v x = v0 cos  0 , and

x = 22 m. The launch angle is  0 = 9.0. The time of flight is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x x = v x t → t = v0 cos  0 That expression for the time is used in Eq. 2–12b for the vertical motion. y = y0 + v y 0 t + a y t 1 2

The constant acceleration of the projectile is given by a = −9.80 m s 2 ˆj. We use Eq. 3–13a with the given velocity, the acceleration, and the time to find the initial velocity. v = v 0 + at → v 0 = v − at = ( 7.8 ˆi + 5.2 ˆj) m s − ( −9.80 m s 2 ˆj) ( 3.0s ) = ( 7.8 ˆi + 34.6 ˆj) m s

(c) From the information above and the symmetry of projectile motion, we know that the final speed just before the projectile hits the ground is the same as the initial speed, and the angle is the same as the launching angle, but below the horizontal. So vfinal = 35 m s and

final = 77 below the horizontal . 50. Choose the origin to be where the projectile is launched, and upwards to be the positive y-direction.

Let the positive y-direction be down. vy gt v x = v0 v y = v y 0 + a y t = gt  = tan −1 = tan −1 vx v0 52. Choose upward to be the positive y-direction. The origin is the point from which the pebbles are released. In the vertical direction, a y = −9.80 m s 2 , the velocity at the window is v y = 0, and the vertical displacement is 8.0 m. The initial y-velocity is found from Eq. 2–12c. v y2 = v y2 0 + 2a y ( y − y0 ) →

(b) Let the launch point be at the y = 0 level, and choose upward to be positive. Use Eq. 2–12b to solve for the time to fall to 2.5 meters below the starting height, and then calculate the horizontal distance traveled. y = y0 + v0 y t + 12 a y t 2 → − 2.5 m = ( 8.854 m s ) sin 5t + 12 ( −9.80 m s 2 ) t 2

Use the positive time to find the horizontal displacement during the jump. x = v0 x t = v0 cos 45t = ( 8.854 m s ) cos 45 (1.597 s ) = 10.0 m She will land exactly on the opposite bank, neither long nor short. 54. The horizontal component of the speed does not change during the course of the motion, and so v x = v x 0. The net vertical displacement is 0 if the firing level equals the landing level, and so y − y0 = 0. Eq. 2–12c then gives v y = v y 0 + 2a y ( y − y0 ) = v y 0 . Thus v y = v y 0 , and from the 2

57. The time of flight is found from the constant velocity relationship for horizontal motion.

x = v x t → t = x v x = 8.0 m 9.1m s = 0.88s The y-motion is symmetric in time – it takes half the time of flight to rise, and half to fall. Thus the time for the jumper to fall from his highest point to the ground is 0.44 sec. His vertical speed is zero at the highest point. From this time, starting vertical speed, and the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height can be found. Call upward the positive y-direction. The point of maximum height is the starting position y0 , the ending position is y = 0, the starting vertical speed is 0, and a = − g . Use Eq. 2–12b to find the height. 2 y = y0 + v y 0 t + 12 a y t 2 → 0 = y0 + 0 − 12 ( 9.8 m s 2 ) ( 0.44 s ) → y0 = 0.95 m . 58. Choose the origin to be the location from which the balloon is fired, and choose upward as the positive y-direction. Assume the boy in the tree is a distance H up from the point at which the balloon is fired, and that the tree is a distance d horizontally from the point at which the balloon is fired. The equations of motion for the balloon and boy are as follows, using constant acceleration relationships.

In the horizontal direction, v x = v0 cos 37.0 = 15.97 m s , and x = 36.0 m. The time of flight to reach the goalposts is found from the horizontal motion at constant speed. x = v x t → t = x v x = 36.0 m 15.97 m s = 2.254 s Now use this time with the vertical motion data and Eq. 2–12b to find the height of the football when it reaches the horizontal location of the goalposts. 2 y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 a y t 2 = 0 + (12.04 m s )( 2.254 s ) + 12 −9.80 m s 2 ( 2.254 s ) = 2.24 m

Since the ball’s height is less than 3.05 m, the football does not clear the bar . It is 0.81 m too low when it reaches the horizontal location of the goalposts. © 2023 Pearson Education, Ltd.

To find the distances from which a score can be made, redo the problem (with the same initial conditions) to find the times at which the ball is exactly 3.05 m above the ground. Those times would correspond with the maximum and minimum distances for making the score. Use Eq. 2–12b. y = y0 + v y 0 t + 12 a y t 2 → 3.05 = 0 + (12.04 m s ) t + 12 −9.80 m s 2 t 2 →

78. Work in the frame of reference in which the train is at rest. Then, relative to the train, the car is moving at 20 km/h.

Finally, use the time with the horizontal range to find the initial speed. 98 m x x = v0 cos  0 t → v0 = = = 33 m s t cos  0 ( 3.620 s ) cos 36 80. See the sketch of the geometry. We assume that the hill is sloping downward to the right. If we take the point where the child jumps as the origin, with the x-direction 1.3m positive to the right and the y-direction positive upwards, 12 then the equation for the hill is given by y = − x tan12. The path of the child (shown by the dashed line) is that of projectile motion. With the same origin and coordinate system, the horizontal motion of the child is given by x = v0 cos15 ( t ) , and the vertical motion of the child will be given by Eq. 2–12b, y = v0 sin15t − 12 gt 2. The landing point of the child is given by xlanding = 1.3cos12 and ylanding = −1.3sin12. Use the horizontal motion and landing point to find an expression for the time the child is in the air, and then use that time to find the initial speed. 1.3cos12 x , tlanding = x = v0 cos15 ( t ) → t = v0 cos15 v0 cos15 Equate the y-expressions, and use the landing time. We also use the trigonometric identity that sin12 cos15 + sin15 cos12 = sin (12 + 15 ) .

As can be seen from the equation, by starting the analysis from the “top” point of the motion, the initial vertical speed is 0. This eliminates the need to know the original launch speed or direction in that calculation. We then also realize that the time for the object to rise is the same as the time for it to fall, so we only have to analyze the downward motion. 82. Choose downward to be the positive y-direction. The origin is at the point from which the divers push off the cliff. In the vertical direction, the initial velocity is v y 0 = 0, the acceleration is

a y = 9.80 m s 2 , and the displacement is 35 m. The time of flight is found from Eq. 2–12b.

Work in the frame of reference in which the car is at rest at ground level. In this reference frame, the  1m s  helicopter’s horizontal speed is 208 km h − 135 km h = 73km h   = 20.28 m s . For  3.6 km h  the vertical motion, choose the level of the helicopter to be the origin, and downward to be positive. Then the package’s y-displacement is y = 78.0 m, v y 0 = 0, and a y = g. The time for the package to fall is calculated from Eq. 2–12b. y = y0 + v y 0 t + 12 a y t 2

The horizontal distance that the package must move, relative to the “stationary” car, is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x = v x t = ( 20.28 m s )( 3.99 s ) = 80.9 m Thus the angle under the horizontal for the package release will be as follows.  78.0 m   y   = tan −1   = tan −1   = 43.95  44  x   80.9 m  85. The proper initial speeds will be those for which the ball has traveled a horizontal distance somewhere between 10.78 m and 11.22 m while it changes height from 2.10 m to 3.05 m y = 0.95m 0 with an initial (shooting) angle of 38.0o. Choose the origin to be at the shooting location of the basketball, with upward x = 10.78 m − 11.22 m as the positive y-direction. Then the vertical displacement is 2 y = 0.95m, a y = −9.80 m s , v y 0 = v0 sin 0 , and the (constant) x-velocity is v x = v0 cos  0 . See the diagram (not to scale). For the constant-velocity horizontal motion, x = v x t = v0 cos  0 t and so t =

. For the vertical motion, apply Eq. 2–12b.

y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 a y t 2 = ( v0 sin  ) t − 12 gt 2

The y-displacement of the projectile is 135 m and the horizontal range of the projectile is 195 m. The acceleration in the y-direction is a y = − g , and the time of flight is 6.6 s.

(a) Use the larger time for the time of flight. The shorter time is the time for the ball to rise to the basket height on the way up, while the longer time is the time for the ball to be at the basket height on the way down. x = v x t = v0 ( cos 35 ) t = (12 m s )( cos 35 )(1.303s ) = 12.81m  13 m (b) The angle to the horizontal is determined by the components of the velocity. v x = v0 cos  0 = 12 cos 35 = 9.830 m s v y = v y 0 + at = v0 sin  0 − gt = 12 sin 35 − 9.80 (1.303) = −5.886 m/s

91. (a) Choose downward to be the positive y-direction. The origin is the point where the arrow leaves the bow. In the vertical direction, v y 0 = 0, y0 = 0, and a y = 9.80 m s 2. In the horizontal direction, x = 38.0 m and v x = 21.3 m s. The time of flight is found from the horizontal motion at constant velocity. x = v x t → t = x v x = 38.0 m 21.3 m s = 1.784 s This time can now be used in Eq. 2–12b to find the vertical drop of the arrow. 2 y = y0 + v y 0t + 12 a y t 2 → y = 0 + 0 + 12 ( 9.80 m s 2 ) (1.784 s ) = 15.6 m (b) For the arrow to hit the target at the same level, the level horizontal range formula derived in the text applies. The range is 38.0 m, and the initial velocity is 21.3 m/s. Solving for the angle of launch results in the following. ( 38.0 m ) ( 9.80 m s 2 ) v02 sin 2 0 Rg −1 1 → sin 2 0 = 2 →  0 = 2 sin = 27.6 R= 2 g v0 ( 21.3 m s ) Because of the symmetry of the range formula, there is also an answer of the complement of the above answer, which would be 62.4. The larger angle is less reasonable – an archer rarely points the bow at such a steep angle. 92. (a) Call the upward direction positive for the vertical motion. Then the velocity of the ball relative to a person on the ground is the vector sum of the horizontal and vertical motions. The horizontal velocity is v x = 12.0 m s and the vertical velocity is v y = 3.0 m s . v = 12.0 m s ˆi + 3.0 m s ˆj → v =

(b) The center fielder catches the ball right at ground level.

Choose the origin to be the point at the top of the building from which the ball is shot, and call upwards the positive y-direction. The initial velocity is v0 = 24 m s at an angle of  0 = 42. The acceleration due to gravity is a y = − g. (a) v x = v0 cos  0 = ( 24 m s ) cos 42 = 17.84 m s  18 m s v y 0 = v0 sin  0 = ( 24 m s ) sin 42 = 16.06 m s  16 m s

v − u2 The speed v must be greater than the speed u. The velocity of the boat relative to the shore when going upstream is v − u. If v  u , the boat will not move upstream at all, and so the first part of the trip would be impossible. Also, in part (b), we see that v is longer than u in the triangle, since v is the hypotenuse, and so we must have v  u. 2

The shape is parabolic , with the parabola opening in the y-direction. 100. We choose to initially point the boat downstream at an angle of  relative to straight across the river, because then all horizontal velocity components are in the same direction, and the algebraic signs might be less confusing. If the boat should in reality be pointed upstream, the solution will give a negative angle. We use v BW = 1.60 m s, the speed of the boat relative to the water (the rowing speed); v WS = 0.80 m s, the speed of the water relative to the shore (the current); and v R = 3.00 m s, his running speed. The width of the river is w = 1300 m, and the length traveled along the bank is l. The time spent in the water is tW , and the time running is tR. The actual vector velocity of the boat is v BS = v BW + v WS. That vector addition is illustrated on the diagram (not drawn to scale).

The distance straight across the river (w) is the velocity component across the river, times the time in the water. The distance along the bank (l) is the velocity component parallel to the river, times the time in the water. The distance along the bank (as he runs back to the point straight across the river) is also his running speed times the time running. These three distances are expressed below. w = ( v BW cos  ) t W ; l = ( v BW sin  + v WS ) t W ; l = v R tR The total time is t = t W + t R , and needs to be expressed as a function of  . Use the distance relations above to write this function.  ( v sin  + v WS )  l ( v sin  + v WS ) tW = t W + BW = t W 1 + BW t = tW + tR = t W +  vR vR vR  

The maximum time would be infinity, if he pointed his boat either directly upstream or downstream. Thus, this angle should give a minimum. A second derivative test could be done, but that would be algebraically challenging. A graph of t vs.  could also be examined to see that the angle is a minimum. Here is a portion of such a graph, showing a minimum time of somewhat more than 900 seconds near  = −25. It is also interesting to note from the equations above that the angle for the minimum time is determined only by the velocities, not the actual distance across the river. The time he takes in getting to the final location can be calculated from the angle. 1300 m w tW = = = 895.77 s v BW cos  (1.60 m s ) cos ( −24.9 )

Thus he must point the boat 24.9 upstream, taking 895.8 seconds to cross, and landing 113 m from the point directly across from his starting point. Then he runs the 113 m from his landing point to the point directly across from his starting point, in 37.7 seconds, for a total elapsed time of 933 seconds (about 15.6 minutes). 101. We have vcar rel. = 12 m s . Use the diagram, showing the snow falling ground

102. First, we find the direction of the straight-line path that the boat must take to pass 150 m to the east of the buoy. See the first diagram (not to scale). We find the net displacement of the boat in the horizontal and vertical directions, and then calculate the angle. x = ( 2800 m ) sin 22.5 + 150 m = 1221.51m y = ( 2800m ) cos 22.5 = 2586.86 m

v boat rel. = vboat rel. cos  ˆi + sin  ˆj . Then, using the second diagram (also not shore

These two component equations can then be solved for v boat rel. and  . One technique is to isolate the shore

terms with  in each equation, and then square those equations and add them. That gives a quadratic equation for vboat rel. . We will represent v boat rel. by “x” and drop the units in order to make shore

CHAPTER 4: Dynamics: Newton’s Laws of Motion Responses to Questions 1.

When you give the wagon a sharp pull forward, the force of friction between the wagon and the child acts on the child to move her forward. But the force of friction acts at the contact point between the child and the wagon – we assume the child is sitting in the wagon. The lower part of the child begins to move forward, while the upper part, following Newton’s first law (the law of inertia), remains almost stationary, making it seem as if the child falls backward. The “backwards” motion is relative to the wagon, not to the ground.

2.

(a) Francesca, standing on the ground beside the truck, will see the box remain motionless while the truck accelerates out from under it. Since there is no friction, there is no net horizontal force on the box and so the box will not gain any speed. Thus Francesca would describe the motion of the box in terms of Newton’s first law – there is no force on the box, so it does not accelerate. (b) Phil, riding on the truck, will see the box appear to accelerate backwards with respect to his frame of reference, which is not inertial. He might even say something about the box being “thrown” backwards from the truck, and try to invoke Newton’s second law to explain the motion of the box. But the source of the force would be impossible to specify. (Phil better hold on to the truck, though; if the truck bed is frictionless, he too will slide off if he is just standing!)

3.

Yes, the net force can be zero on a moving object. If the net force is zero, then the object’s acceleration is zero, but its velocity is not necessarily zero. Instead of classifying objects as “moving” and “not moving,” Newtonian dynamics classifies them as “accelerating” and “not accelerating.” Both zero velocity and constant velocity fall in the “not accelerating” category.

4.

If the acceleration of an object is zero, the vector sum of the forces acting on the object is zero (Newton’s second law), so there can be forces on an object that has no acceleration. For example, a book resting on a table is acted on by gravity and the normal force from the table, but it has zero acceleration, because the vector sum of the two forces on it is 0.

5.

If only one force acts on an object, the net force cannot be zero, and so the object cannot have zero acceleration, by Newton’s second law. It is possible for the object to have zero velocity, but only for an instant. For example (if we neglect air resistance), a ball thrown up into the air has only the force of gravity acting on it. Its speed will decrease while it travels upward, stops, and then falls back to the ground. At the instant the ball is at its highest point, its velocity is zero. However, the ball has a non-zero net force and a non-zero acceleration throughout its flight, including at the top, where its velocity is zero.

6.

(a) A force is needed to bounce the ball back up, because the ball changes direction, and so the ball accelerates. If the ball accelerates, there must be a force. (b) The pavement exerts the force on the golf ball.

7.

As you take a step on the log, your foot exerts a force on the log in the direction opposite to the direction in which you want to move, which pushes the log “backwards.” (The log exerts an equal and opposite force forward on you, by Newton’s third law.) If the log had been on the ground, friction between the ground and the log could have kept the log from moving. However, the log is floating in water, which offers little resistance to the movement of the log as you push it backwards while walking forward.
