Assignment:
Here, we provide a brief summary of some common kinematics, and solve three common kinematics problems, specifically from College Physics, by J. Serway, et al. We specifically find:
- For a car traveling east at a given velocity, the final velocity for a constant acceleration in two different directions.
- For an arrow shot straight up in the air, the maximum height of the arrow and the time the arrow is in the air.
- For a mailbag released from a descending helicopter, the speed of the mailbag and its distance below the helicopter.
Focus on the strategy for solving kinematic equations efficiently. The full solution/explanation is included in both PDF and PS format.
