Chapter 10 Practice Test Flashcards
You are throwing paper airplanes in class, and you throw them hard enough they start out at a horizontal speed of 10 ft / s. However, they have a horizontal deceleration of 4 ft / s. What is the greatest distance away from the intial position that an object can be if it can be struck by the airplane?
12 1/2ft
A penny is thrown down with a velocity of 3/2 ft/s off the top of the Spears Tower, which is 1500 feet tall. The penny accelerates at 3e 2t ft/s2 as it falls. What is its velocity when it hits the ground?
−3001 1/2 ft/s
I am stuck in Austin with a flat tire, and I need to get to my class in Houston within 2 hours. The drive is 180 miles long, but I want to be careful of the Austin cops. I do not usually get caught speeding unless I am seen accelerating too fast, so I do not want to accelerate at a rate of more than 120 mi / h2. Just to be careful, I′m going to take exactly 2 hours to make the trip. Assuming I accelerate at 120 mi / h2 for a while, and travel at a constant speed afterwards, what’s the fastest speed I′ll be going during my trip?
120 mi / h
A skydiver jumps out of a plane 7400 feet above the earth’s surface, so that she is not moving up or down as she leaves the plane. She has to open her parachute before she is 1000 feet above the surface to make a safe landing. How long can she wait to open her parachute?
20 s
