Your roommate drops a tennis ball from a third-story balcony.
It hits the sidewalk and bounces as high as the second story.
Draw a complete motion diagram of the tennis ball from the
time it is released until it reaches the maximum height on its
bounce. Be sure to determine and show the acceleration at the lowest point.
As an architect, you are designing a new house. A window has a height between 140 cm and 150 cm and a width between 74 cm and 70 cm. What are the smallest and largest areas that the window could be?
A rocket is launched straight up. Draw a basic motion diagram,
using the images from the video, from the moment of liftoff until
the rocket is at an altitude of 500 m.
FIGURE EX1.18 shows the motion diagram of a drag racer. The camera took one frame every 2 s.
a. Measure the x-value of the racer at each dot. List your data in a table similar to Table 1.1, showing each position and the time at which it occurred.
b. Make a position-versus-time graph for the drag racer. Because you have data only at certain instants, your graph should consist of dots that are not connected.
