What is the velocity (magnitude and direction counterclockwise from the +x-axis, which is the initial horizontal direction in which the rock was thrown) of the rock just before it hits the ground?
A 2000 kg car is slowed down uniformly from 18.0 m/s to 7.00 m/s in 4.40 s. (a) What average total force acted on the car during that time?
A ball is tossed from an upper-story window of a building. The ball is given an initial velocity of 7.50 m/s at an angle of 25.0° below the horizontal. It strikes the ground 3.00 s later.
An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 59.5° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explodes on a mountainside 41.0 s after firing. What are the x and y comp
A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1900 N forward push by the water on the propeller, and the other is an 1200 N resistive force due to the water around the bow.
