A rocket is launched at an angle of 52.0° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 97 m/s. It moves for 3.00 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 31.0 m/s2. At this time its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a free body.

vf = vi + at
rx = vit + ½ at2
vf2 = vi2 +2arx
rx = ½ (vi + vf)t

4. A sailboat is moving across the water at 3.0 m/s. A gust of windfills its sails and it accelerates at a constant 2.0 m/s2. At thesame instant, a motorboat at rest starts its engines andaccelerates at 4.0 m/s2. After 3.0 seconds have elapsed, find thevelocity of (a) the sailboat, and (b) the motorboat.



7. A rail gun uses electromagnetic energy to accelerate objectsquickly over a short distance. In an experiment, a 2.00 kgprojectile remains on the rails of the gun for only 2.10x10-2 s,but in that time it goes from rest to a velocity of 4.00×103 m/s.What is the average acceleration of the projectile?



12. A space shuttle sits on the launch pad for 2.0 minutes, andthen goes from rest to 4600 m/s in 8.0 minutes. Treat its motion asstraight-line motion. What is the average acceleration of theshuttle (a) during the first 2.0 minutes, (b) during the 8.0minutes the shuttle moves, and (c) during the entire 10 minuteperiod? (be careful with min and seconds)



19. The United States and South Korean soccer teams are playing inthe first round of the World Cup. An American kicks the ball,giving it an initial velocity of 3.6 m/s. The ball rolls a distanceof 5.0 m and is then intercepted by a South Korean player. If theball accelerates at -0.50 m/s2 while rolling along the grass, findits velocity at the time of interception.




23. The city is trying to figure out how long the traffic lightshould stay yellow at an intersection. The speed limit on the roadis 45.0 km/h and the intersection is 23.0 m wide. A car istraveling at the speed limit in the positive direction and canbrake with an acceleration of -5.20 m/s2. (a) If the car is to stopon the white line, before entering the intersection, what is theminimum distance from the line at which the driver must apply thebrakes?



**(b) How long should the traffic light stay yellow so that if thecar is just closer than that minimum distance when the light turnsyellow, it can safely cross the intersection without having tospeed up?

I no this is alot of questions but im having trouble answeringthese! So please help me..

A car of mass m accelerates from rest along a level straighttrack, not at constant acceleration but with constant engine power,P. Assume that air resistance is negligible.

(a) Find the car's velocity as a function of time.

(b) A second car starts from rest alongside the first car on thesame track, but maintains constant acceleration. Which car takesthe initial lead? Does the other car overtake it? If yes, write aformula for the distance from the starting point at which thishappens.

(c) You are in a drag race, on a straight level track, with anopponent whose car maintains a constant acceleration of 12m/s2. Both cars have identical masses of 1000 kg. Thecars start together from rest. Air resistance is assumed to benegligible. Calculate the minimum power your engine needs for youto win the race, assuming the power output is constant and thedistance to finish line is 0.250 mi.
