A car and a truck start from rest at the same instant, with the car initially at some distance behind the truck. The truck has a constant acceleration of, and the car has an acceleration of. The car overtakes the truck after the truck has moved. (a) How much time does it take the car to overtake the truck? (b) How far was the car behind the truck initially? (c) What is the speed of each when they are abreast? (d) On a single graph, sketch the position of each vehicle as a function of time. Takeat the initial location of the truck.
A jet fighter pilot wishes to accelerate from rest at a constant acceleration of to reach Mach 3 (three times the speed of sound) as quickly as possible. Experimental tests reveal that he will black out if this acceleration lasts for more than5.0s. Usefor the speed of sound. (a) Will the period of acceleration last long enough to cause him to black out? (b) What is the greatest speed he can reach with an acceleration ofbefore he blacks out?
A bird is flying due east. Its distance from a tall building is given by
.What is the instantaneous velocity of the bird when t = 8.00 s?
Hot Jupiters. In 2004 astronomers reported the discovery of a large Jupiter-sized planet orbiting very close to the star (hence the term 鈥渉ot Jupiter鈥). The orbit was just the distance of Mercury from our sun, and it takes the planet onlydays to make one orbit (assumed to be circular). (a) What is the mass of the star? Express your answer in kilograms and as a multiple of our sun鈥檚 mass. (b) How fast (in km>s) is this planet moving?
