Tarzan (?T=95.0 kg) swings down from the cliff and has a speed of 10.5 m/s just before he impacts Jane (?J=55.0 kg).

Answer the two questions below, using three significant digits.

Part A: Suppose the Tarzan is able to grab Jane, and the two of them swing together as a single unit. What is the speed of the pair (?pvp)?

?p=vp=

m/s

Part B: Suppose that Tarzan is not fast enough to grab Jane secure, and instead, he bumps her, sending her forward. He has a forward speed of 3.05 m/s. What is Jane's forward speed (?JvJ)?

?J=vJ=

m/s

A ball is thrown from a 10 m high cliff with a speed of 14 m/s. How fast will the ball be going when it hits the ground? A baseball is travelling at 40 m/s toward a batter. The batter swings and makes contact with the ball for 0.001 s, sending the ball back the other direction at 50 m/s. What is the ball’s change in momentum? How much force did the bat apply to the ball?

A jet accelerates at a=3.92 m/s^2 from rest until it reaches its takeoff velocity of 360 km/hr. It has to travel for 5 seconds at its takeoff velocity before taking off. What's the minimum distance that the jet will travel on the runway? A car backs up at a constant speed for a short time, then applies the brakes and steadily comes to rest. Sketch velocity-time and position-time graphs that depict the car's motion. Assume that the forward direction is...
