Aspeedboat travels from the dock to the first buoy, a distance of 20 meters, in 18 seconds. it began the trip at a speed of 0 m/s. by the time it reached the buoy, it was going 10 m/s. what was the average velocity of the boat?

The rocket is fired vertically and tracked by the radar station shown. when θ reaches 66°, other corresponding measurements give the values r = 32700 ft, r¨ = 85 ft/sec2, and θ˙ = 0.019 rad/sec. calculate the magnitudes of the velocity and acceleration of the rocket at this position.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

The law of the conservation of momentum says that the total momentum of any closed and isolated system cannot
