You are required to build a pulley system to pull heavy storage boxes across a frictionlessfloor. The boxes must be pulled across the floor to the wall. The pulley is placed 15 feet highon the wall. You are able to pull the rope through the pulley at a rate of 3 ft/s. This meansthe hypotenuse is changing at a rate of 3 ft/s. Round your answers to three decimals. a.) How fast is the box moving across the floor when the box is 12 feet away from the wall? b.) At what rate is the angle between the rope and the floor changing at the same time?
You kick a ball vertically from the ground and give it an initial velocity of = 30 m/s. Vi Find the height the ball reaches at the very top. You will need to do this using two different methods. Method 1: A. Use the velocity equation to find the time it takes to reach the top. B. Use the position equation to find the height (Y) that the ball reaches Method 2:C. Use conservation of energy to find the height that the ball reaches. D. Which method was easier?
2 Gaetano shoots a basketball from a height of 6.5 ft with an initial vertical velocity of 17 ft/s. a Write an equation to model the height, h, of the basketball t seconds after Gaetano shoots it. b. What is the maximum height the basketball reaches? C. If the hoop is 10ft high, how long does it take the ball to go through the hoop? 3 You go to the gym to launch a rocket you made in physics class. Your rocket is launched upwards with an initial velocity of 40ft/s, and your friend's is launched upwards with an initial velocity of 38ft/s. The ceiling of the gym is 24ft high. Do either of the rockets hit the ceiling? Show all your work & explain your reasoning SS0
A. Carl (person 1) walks 100 m North and 300 m East 45 degrees NE. How many meters the distance traveled by Carl? How many meters is the displacement? B. If you calculated the displacement. Then what is the velocity? If carl (person 1) walks 400 m. In 3 minutes C. Both Carl and Kim (person 2) have walk the same distance, the same displacement and the same velocity If the Carl has mass of 50 kgs. And the kim has mass of 65 kgs. Which person has a greater momentum?
Problem 2: Assume negligible friction between the crate and the surface. In both situations, a man exerts a 300 N force on a crate that has a mass of 50 kg. The angle in both scenarios is 30 degrees. 15 F A. Draw two free-body diagrams with the crate as the object of interest-one for each scenario. Label the individual forces that act on the crate clearly. B. Separately for each situation, state whether the normal force is equal to, greater than or less that the weight force? Explain your reasoning.
The person is roller skates so friction can be ignored. They are traveling at 2.0 m/s beginning the ramp and traveling down a ramp to flatland which is 6.0 meters below the beginning of the ramp. 1. What is the person's speed at the bottom if they do not brake. 2. Should they break?

Ignore air resistance. 1. Sketch a picture of the situation. 2. What is the initial velocity of the ball? 3. Find the ball's velocity when the catcher caught the ball. 4. Find the total time the ball was in the air. SHOW WORK!
Box-Dog (who has a mass m) is going down a frictionless hill at a constant speed. Select all of the following equations that correctly describe Box-Dog’s motion. More than one answer may be possible; select allthat apply.A. Fdog + mgcos(theta) - Ft cos(phi) = 0B. Fdog + mgsin(theta) - Ft sin(phi) = 0C. Fdog + mgsin(theta) - Ft cos(phi) = 0D. FN + Ft cos(phi) - mgcos(theta) = 0E. FN + Ft sin(phi) - mgcos(theta) = 0F. FN + Ft sin(phi) - mgsin(theta) = 0
Two girls are standing on the flat roof of a building. Each girl releases identical stones at exactlythe same time. Girl A releases her stone which falls straight down. Girl B throws her stonehorizontally.a. Which stone reaches the ground first? b. State the acceleration for each stone (Remember acceleration is a vector). c. Determine which stone has the greatest speed just before they hit the ground. Fully explain your answer. This may include a diagram where appropriate.
Art and physical endurance enthusiasts compete in an annual race called the Kinetic Sculpture Grand Championship (A kinetic sculpture is a sculpture that is able to move). Let's suppose a kinetic sculpture team races its vehicle on a river. It takes 0.05 hours for the vehicle to race down the river going with a current of 3 miles per hour, and 0.15 hours to travel the same distance back up the river against the current. a. Set up a linear system of equations for this problem where d represents the distance traveled and x represents the rate at which the kinetic sculpture is moving. b. Find the rate at which the kinetic sculpture was moving down the river and back.
