Concept explainers

Relative Velocity

It is a measurement of an object with regards to the other object which is moving or stable or stationary. For example, if we are traveling in a bus and the bus is moving at speed of 50km/hr, then our speed is according to the nearby passenger on the bus is zero. According to them, we are not moving. But if one person standing on the ground or road observes us from outside of the bus, according to him we are moving at a speed of 50km/hr and the bus is also moving at a speed of 50km/hr. Now, the motion is recognized by the observer, it depends on a frame of reference or observer. This is motion called relative motion.

A sailor is enjoying a nice day on his sailboat, sailing west with the wind at constant velocity. At one point the sailor spots an anchored buoy some distance to the east of the boat, and turns on his motor to head towards it. The boat kept gliding to the west for some distance before turning around and heading eastward. The boat was traveling initially with velocity v = -6.0i m/s and it took the the boat 2.0 s to turn around. What is the velocity of the boat, 5.0 s after the motor is turned on? The coordinate system is set up such that the +i direction is East. Pick the correct answer O +3.0î m/s O -9.0i m/s O -3.0î m/s o +9.0å m/s o +2.0i m/s

A 440g beanbag slides up a cornhole board (if you’ve never played cornhole before, the board is basically a ramp). The board is tilted 10.◦ from the hori- zontal. The beanbag initially is moving with a speed of 1.21 m/s directly up the ramp. It stops at a displacement 0.35m from where it was initially, and then slides back down 1. How does the magnitude of the acceleration of the bean bag on the wayup compare to the acceleration of the beanbag on the way down? Explainyour reasoning.2. What is the coefficient of friction between the bean bag and the ramp?3. What is the bean bag’s speed when it reaches its initial starting point onits way down?

You are walking over to where you think the bus stop is at the bottom of the hill. You are standing at rest at a bus stop. The bus is moving at a constant speed of 5.00 m/s and passes you. When the rear of the bus is 12 m past you, you realize that you were standing at the wrong spot, so you start to rin toward it with a constant acceleration of 0.92 m/s^2. The door of the bus is 5 m in front of the rear of the bus. A) How far would you have to run befire you catch up to the door of the bus to make it to class? B) How fast must you be running then when you catch the bus?

A woman on a bridge 75.0 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the riverbelow. Trying to hit the raft, she drops a stone from rest when the raft has 7.00 m moreto travel before passing under the bridge. The stone hits the water 4.00 m in front of theraft. Find the speed of the raft.
A fisherman sets out upstream on a river. His small boat, powered by an outboard motor, travels at a constant speed υ in still water. The water flows at a lower constant speed υw. The fisherman has traveled upstream for 2.00 km when his ice chest falls out of the boat. He notices that the chest is missing only after he has gone upstream for another 15.0 min. At that point, he turns around and heads back downstream, all the time traveling at the same speed relative to the water. He catches up with the floating ice chest just as he returns to his starting point. How fast is the river flowing? Solve this problem in two ways. (a) First, use the Earth as a reference frame.With respect to the Earth, the boat travels upstream at speed υ - υw and downstream at υ + υw. (b) A second much simpler and more elegant solution is obtained by using the water as the reference frame. This approach has important applications in many more complicated problems; examples are calculating the motion of rockets…
