A plane flying north at 50 km/h
experiences a wind 10 km/h
south. What is the magnitude
and direction of the plane?
Answer
•
This is a headwind; therefore, you
subtract.
• The answer is 40 km/h
going north
• A plane flying north at 50
km/h experiences a wind 10
km/h east. What is the
magnitude and direction of the
plane?
Answer
• Use Pythagorean Theorem
• a2 + b2 = c2
The answer is 51 km/h
northeast
• When an object is thrown in a curved path,
what is its velocity at the top of the path?
Answer
• Entirely horizontal because the vertical
component is zero
• Assuming the car starts from rest, what is

How high is a tree if an acorn falls and hits
the ground in 2.25 s?
Answer
Unknown
d
Known
t = 2.25 s
d = vot + ½
2
gt
= 0(2.25s) + ½ (10m/s2)(2.25s)2
= 0 + 5m/s2(5.0652s2)
d = 25.31 m

Question
• A dog walks on a street.
What is the force of friction
between the 225 N dog
and the street that has a
coefficient of friction of
0.26?
Answer
Known
w = 225 N = FN
µ = 0.26
Solve
Ff = µFN
Ff = (0.26)(225N)
Unknown
Ff = ?
Ff = 58.5 N
Equation
Ff = µFN
Question
• Mass and acceleration are
__________________
proportional.
Answer
• Inversely proportional
–More mass results in less
acceleration
–Less mass results in
more acceleration
Question
• Pressure and Area are
_______________
proportional.
Answer
• Inversely proportional
–More area covered results
in less pressure
–Less area covered results
in more pressure

• What is the difference in water
pressure between the top and
bottom of a 100-m deep well?
Answer
• At the bottom the pressure
is greater
• If you lift four loads up one step,
how much work do you do
compared to lifting two loads up
one step.
Answer
• You do twice as much work
W = Fd,
therefore, if the distance
stays the same but you lift
twice as much weight, you do
twice as much work
• What is the buoyant force of a rubber
ducky floating in water that displaces 0.05
cm3 of water. (remember the density of
water is 1 g/cm3)
Answer
Known
D = 1 g/cm3
g = 10 m/s2
V = 0.05 cm3
Unknown
Fb
Equation
Fb = DgV
Solve
Fb = DgV
=(1g/cm3)(10m/s2)(0.05cm3)
Fb = 0.5 N
