Chapter 1.3, Problem 1fT

Generalize your results thus far to answer the following question:

What is the relationship between the direction of the acceleration and the direction of the velocity for an object that is moving in a straight line and slowing down? Explain.

Describe the direction of the acceleration of a ball that is rolling up a straight incline.

A student has assembled an arrangement of tracks on which a steel ball has the motion represented by the v versus t graph at the right. The ball is released from rest (v = 0 cm/s) at x = 46 cm when t = 0 s.  a. At what time (to the nearest second) was the ball at x = 188 cm? Show your work, explaining how you determined your answer from the v versus t graph. b. What was the magnitude of the average velocity of the ball over the entire time interval shown on the graph (i.e., between t = 0 s and t = 20 s)? Show all work.
Identify the given quantities, unknown quantities, and equations to solve the given problem. Show your encoded solution with and answer . Please don't handwrite it. This is not graded. John is on top of the building and Jay is down. If James throws a ball at an angle of 600 and with initial velocity of 20 m/s. At what height will the ball reach after 2 s?
Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A typical jetliner lands at a speed of 149 mi/h and decelerates at the rate of (10.1 mi/h)/s. If the jetliner travels at a constant speed of 149 mi/h for 1.5 s after landing before applying the brakes, what is the total displacement of the jetliner between touchdown on the runway and coming to rest?
