Chapter-3 Kinematics in Two Dimensions

1. In two-dimensional motion in the x-y plane, what is the relationship between the x part of the

independent
motion to the y part of the motion?
The x part of the motion is linearly dependent on the y part of the motion.
The x part of the motion goes as the square of the y part of the motion.
⑧ The x part of the motion is independent of the y part of the motion.
If the y part of the motion is in the vertical direction, then x part of the motion is
dependent on the y part.
The y part of the motion goes as the square of the x part of the motion.
2. Ball 1 is thrown into the air and it follows the trajectory for projectile motion shown in the
drawing. At the instant it is at the top of its trajectory, Ball 2 is dropped from rest at the same
height. Which ball reaches the ground first?

 Ball 1 reaches the ground first, since it is moving at the top of the trajectory, while
Ball 2 is dropped from rest.
Ball 2 reaches the ground first, because it has the shorter distance to travel.
3. Two objects are fired into the air. The drawing shows that they reach the same height, but the
ranges of their projectile motions are di↵erent. Which one is in the air for the greatest amount
of time? of time in amount the air

of time in the air

Projectile 1, because it has the smaller initial speed and, therefore, travels more slowly
than projectile 2.
⑨ Both projectiles are in the air for the same amount of time.
Projectile 1, because it has the smaller range and, hence, the horizontal component
of its velocity is smaller than that of projectile 2.
Projectile 2, because it has the greater range.

blades and the ice. The mass of the man is 78 kg, and the mass of the woman is 52 kg. The
woman pushes on the man with a force of 59 N due east. Determine the acceleration (magnitude

9. A neutron star has a mass of 2.71 ⇥ 1030 kg and a radius of 6.90 ⇥ 103 m. Suppose an object
falls from rest near the surface of such a star. How fast would it be moving after it had fallen
a distance of 0.0094 m? (Assume that the gravitational force is constant over the distance of
the fall, and that the star is not rotating.) 267163 m/s C =

11. Traveling at a speed of 16.7 m/s, the driver of an automobile suddenly locks the wheels by
slamming on the brakes. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is

temporarily pressing it against a wall. The pressing force is perpendicular to the wall. The
coefficient of static friction between the picture and the wall is 0.790. What is the minimum
amount of pressing force that must be used? 35.35 N F

13. To hoist himself into a tree, a 72.0-kg man ties one end of a nylon rope around his waist and
throws the other end over a branch of the tree. He then pulls downward on the free end of
the rope with a force of 371 N. Neglect any friction between the rope and the branch, and
determine the man’s upward acceleration. Use g =9.80 m/s2 . 0.506 m/s2 a Zing =

14. A person whose weight is 513 N is being pulled up vertically by a rope from the bottom of a
cave that is 38.4 m deep. The maximum tension that the rope can withstand without breaking
is 596 N. What is the shortest time, starting from rest, in which the person can be brought out
of the cave? 6.96 s = gt =

15. The drawing shows Robin Hood (mass = 79.1 kg) about to escape from a dangerous situation.
With one hand, he is gripping the rope that holds up a chandelier (mass = 240.0 kg). When
he cuts the rope where it is tied to the floor, the chandelier will fall, and he will be pulled
up toward a balcony above. Ignore the friction between the rope and the beams over which it
slides, and find (a) the acceleration with which Robin is pulled upward and (b) the tension in
the rope while Robin escapes. 4.94 m/s2 1166 N
