For a short time the position of a roller-coaster car along its path is defined by the equations r = 25 m, = (0.3t) rad, and z = (-8 cos) m, where t is measured in seconds, Determine the magnitudes of the car's velocity and acceleration when t = 4s.
A package is dropped from the plane which is flying with a constant horizontal velocity of vA = 150 ft/s at a height h = 1500 ft. Determine the radius of curvature of the path of the package just before it is released from plane at A.
The motorcyclist attempts to jump over a series of cars and trucks and lands smoothly on the other ramp, i.e., such that his velocity is tangent to the ramp at B. Determine the launch speed vA necessary to make the jump.
A car, initially at rest, moves along a straight road with constant acceleration such that it attains a velocity of 60 ft/s when s = 150 ft. Then after being subjected to another constant acceleration, it attains a final velocity of 100 ft/s when s = 325 ft. Determine the average velocity and average acceleration of the car for the entire 325-ft displacement.
