1. C. 3.00

Equation: $S=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

S = 46.0 m - 1.80 m = 44.2 m is the space between the roof of the building and the head of your friend

$a=9.81 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the time:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(44.2 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=3.00 s$

2. A. 2.55 m/s

Equation: $v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity of the sandbag

u=5.00 m/s is the initial velocity of the sandbag

a=-9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration (with a negative sign since the direction is opposite to the initial velocity)

t=0.250 s is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v=u+at=5.00 m/s+(-9.81 m/s^2)(0.25 s)=2.55 m/s$

3. B. 7.87 m/s

Equation: $v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity of the ball

u=0 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball

a=3.28 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

t=2.40 s is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v=u+at=0 m/s+(3.28 m/s^2)(2.40 s)=7.87 m/s$

4. B. 49.6 m

Equation: $S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

S is how far the coin fell down

u=15 m/s is the initial velocity

t=2.00 s is the time

a=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

Substituting into the equation,

$S=(15 m/s)(2.0 s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2.0 s)^2=49.6 m$

5. B. 34.6 m/s

Equation: $v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity of the coin

u=15.0 m/s is the initial velocity of the coin

a=3.28 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

t=2.00 s is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v=u+at=15.0 m/s+(9.81 m/s^2)(2.00 s)=34.6 m/s$

6. B. 2.8 s

The height of the shorter tree is :

$S=\frac{1}{2}at^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2.0 s)^2=19.6 m$

The height of the longer tree is twice, so S=19.6 x 2=39.2 m

The time it takes for a coconut on the longer tree to fall down is

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(39.2 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=2.8 s$

7. C. 2.24 m/s^2

Equation: $S=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

S = 11.26 m is the distance covered by the ball

$a$ is the acceleration of gravity on the planet

t=3.17 s is the time

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the acceleration:

$a=\frac{2S}{t^2}=\frac{2(11.26 m)}{(3.17 s)^2}=2.24 m/s^2$

8. D. 40.9 m

Position of the sandbag after time t: $S=S_0+ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

$S_0=40 m$ is the initial position

u=5.00 m/s is the initial velocity of the sandbag

a=-9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration (with a negative sign since the direction is opposite to the initial velocity)

t=0.250 s is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find

$S=40 m+(5.0 m/s)(0.250 s)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.81 m/s^2)(0.250 s)^2=40.9 m$

9. The correct statement is:

A. A freely falling object has a constant acceleration called the acceleration due to gravity.

10. 20.5 m/s

Equation: $v^2 = u^2 +2aS$

where

v is the final velocity of the coin

u=15.0 m/s is the initial velocity

a=9.81 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

S=10.0 m is the distance

Substituting numbers in the equation, we find

$v=\sqrt{u^2+2aS}=\sqrt{(15.0m/s)^2+2(9.81 m/s^2)(10.0 m)}=20.5 m/s$

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

1. You are standing on the roof of a building, 46.0 m above the ground. your friend, who is 1.80 m tall, is standing next to the building. if your friend does not move, how long will it take for an egg to drop on his or her head?

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2S}{a} } = \sqrt{\frac{2(46.0 m - 1.80 m)}{9.81 m/s^2} } = 3 s$

2. A hot-air balloonist, rising vertically with a constant speed of 5.00 m/s releases a sandbag at the instant the balloon is 40.0 m above the ground. After it is released, the sandbag encounters no predictable air drag. Compute the velocity of the sandbag at 0.250 s after it's release.

$v = u + a*t \\v= 5.00 m/s+ (-9.81 m/s^2*0.250 s)\\v = 2.55 m/s$

3. You are on a planet where the acceleration due to gravity is known to be $3.28 m/s^2$ . You drop a ball and record that the ball takes 2.40 s to reach the ground. How fast is the ball moving just as it lands? Neglect air resistance.

$v = u + a*t \\v= 0 m/s+ (3.28 m/s^2*2.40 s)\\v = 7.87 m/s$

4. A student throws a coin vertically downward from the top of a building. The coin leaves the thrower's hand with a speed of 15.0 m/s. How far does it fall in 2.00 s?

$S=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2 = (15.0 m/s*2.00 s) + (\frac{1}{2} 9.81 m/s^2*(2.00 s)^2)\\S = 49.6 m$

5. A student throws a coin vertically downward from the top of a building. The coin leaves the thrower's hand with a speed of 15.0 m/s. What is it's speed after falling freely for 2.00 s?

$v = u +at = 15.0 m/s +(3.28 m/s^2 *2.00 s)\\v = 34.6 m/s$

6. Two coconuts fall freely from rest at the same time, one from a tree twice as high as the other. If the coconut from the shorter tree takes 2.0 s to reach the ground, how long will it take the other coconut to touch the ground?

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2S}{a} } = \sqrt{\frac{2*(19.6 *2)}{9.81 m/s^2} } = 2.8s$

7. One way to measure g on another planet or moon by remote sensing is to measure how long it takes an object to fall a given distance. A lander vehicle on a distant planet records the fact that it takes 3.17 s for a ball to fall freely 11.26 m, starting from rest. What is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?

$a = \frac{2S}{t^2} = \frac{2*11.26 m}{(3.17 s)^2 } = 2.24 m/s^2$

8. A hot-air balloonist, rising vertically with a constant speed of 5.00 m/s releases a sandbag at the instant the balloon is 40.0 m above the ground. After it is released, the sandbag encounters no predictable air drag. Compute the position of the sandbag at 0.250 s after it's release.

$S = S_0 +ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2\\S = 40m + (5.00 m/s*0.250 s) + \frac{1}{2} (-9.81 m/s^2)*(0.250 s)^2\\S = 40.9 m$
