During the dive, the string of the keepsake is seen to remain perpendicular to the top of the canopy. a. What is the angle θ of the aircraft’s dive? b. What is the tension in the string?

You are designing a high-speed elevator for a new skyscraper. The elevator will have a mass limit of 2400 kg (including passengers). For passenger comfort, you choose the maximum ascent speed to be 18.0 m/s, the maximum descent speed to be 10.0 m/s, and the maximum acceleration magnitude to be 5.00 m/s2. Ignore friction.
a.)What is the minimum value of a 60.0-kg passenger’s apparent weight during the ascent?
b.)What is the minimum time it will take the elevator to descend to the lobby from the observation deck, a vertical displacement of 640 m?
Water leaves a fireman’s hose (held near the ground) with an initial velocity v0 = 18 m/s at an angle θ = 28.5° above horizontal. Assume the water acts as a projectile that moves without air resistance.
a. Using v0, θ, and g, write an expression for the time, tmax, the water travels to reach its maximum vertical height.
b. At what horizontal distance d from the building base, where should the fireman place the hose for the water to reach its maximum height as it strikes the building? Express this distance, d, in expression in terms of v0, θ, and g.
An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.745 m above his mouth.
a. What is the minimum speed at which the archer fish must spit? answer in m/s
b. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? answer in degrees

- Mr. One is pushing a cart with a force of E1 = 15.00 N due north. Mr. Two is pushing the same cart with a force of F2 = 25.00 N due northeast. Mr. Three is pushing the cart a force F3 so that the cart is in equilibrium. Find force F3 so that F1 + F2+F3 = 0. First, we calculate the vector sum F + F, by component method.
