A marching band consists of rows of musicians walking in straight, even lines. When a marching band performs in an event, such as a parade, and must round a curve in the road, the musician on the outside of the curve must walk around the curve in the same amount of time as the musician on the inside of the curve. This motion can be approximated by a disk rotating at a constant rate about an axis perpendicular to its...

A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 97.5 km/h, except for a 22.0-min rest stop. If the person's average speed is 72.6 km/h, find the following. (a) How much time is spent on the trip? (b) How far does the person travel? A truck covers 40.0 m in 8.65 s while uniformly slowing down to a final velocity of 3.40 m/s. (a) Find the truck's original speed. (b) Find its acceleration.

You are walking down a straight path in a park and notice there is another person walking some distance ahead of you. The distance between the two of you remains the same, so you deduce that you are walking at the same speed of 1.17 m/s. Suddenly, you notice a wallet on the ground. You pick it up and realize it belongs to the person in front of you. To catch up, you start running at a speed of 2.75...

A rock takes 3.2 s to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the cliff with an initial velocity of 8.4 m/s. Calculate the height of the cliff (in meters). Using that information, how long would it take to reach the ground if the rock is thrown straight down with the same speed?
