  2. Understanding An object that’s moving with constant speed travels once around a circular path. Which of the following is/are true concerning this motion? I The displacement is zero II The average speed is zero III The acceleration is zero • I only • I and II only • I and III only • III only • II and III only

  3. Understanding Which of the following is/are true? If an object’s acceleration is constant, then it must move in a straight line. If an object’s acceleration is zero, then its speed must remain constant. If an object’s speed remains constant, then its acceleration must be zero. • I and II only • I and III only • II only • III only • II and III only

  4. Understanding A baseball is thrown straight upward. What is the ball’s acceleration at its highest point? Gravity is always turned on. • 0 • ½ g [down] • g [down] • ½ g [up] • g [up]

  5. Understanding How long would it take a car, starting from rest and accelerating uniformly in a straight line at 5 m/s2, to cover a distance of 200m? Hint: • 9.0 s • 10.5 s • 12.0 s • 15.5 s • 20.0 s

  7. Understanding A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from a bridge. If air resistance could be ignored, how long would it take the stone to strike the water 80 m below the bridge? We need only think about the vertical components. Hint: • 1 s • 2 s • 4 s • 6 s • 8 s

  8. Understanding A soccer ball, at rest on the ground, is kicked with an initial velocity of 10 m/s at a launch angle of 300. Calculate its total flight time, assuming air resistance is negligible? We need only think about the vertical time to travel up to its max height, then double it. Hint: • 0.5 s • 1 s • 1.7 s • 2 s • 4 s

  9. Understanding A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 30 m/s from a bridge. Find the stone’s total speed when it enters the water 4 seconds later?

  10. Understanding Which of the following statements is true concerning the motion of an ideal projectile launched at an angle of 450 to the horizontal? • The acceleration vector points opposite to the velocity vector on the way up and in the same direction as the velocity vector on the way down. • The speed at the top of the trajectory is zero. • The object’s total speed remains constant during the entire flight. • The horizontal speed decreases on the way down. • The vertical speed decreases on the way up and increases on the way down.

The student estimates that he is 20.0 m from the entrance to the intersection (10.0 m wide) when the traffic light changes from green to yellow. The light will change from yellow to red in 3.00 seconds. The maximum safe deceleration of the car is 4.00 m/s2while the maximum acceleration of the car is 2.00 m/s2. Should the physics student a) decelerate and stop or b) accelerate and travel through the intersection? Note: there is a police car directly behind the student.
