The at curve is first approximated with a series of rectangles, each of width t 2 s. The area (t )(aave ) of each rectangle is approximately equal to the change in velocity v for the specified interval of time. Thus, v aave t where the values of aave and v are given in columns 1 and 2, respectively, of the following table.
2.
Noting that v0 0 and that v2 v1 v12 where v12 is the change in velocity between times t1 and t2, the velocity at the end of each 2 s interval can be computed; see column 3 of the table and the vt curve.
3.
The vt curve is next approximated with a series of rectangles, each of width t 2 s. The area (t )(vave ) of each rectangle is approximately equal to the change in position x for the specified interval of time. Thus,

where vave and x are given in columns 4 and 5, respectively, of the table. 4.
With x0 0 and noting that
x2 x1 x12 where x12 is the change in position between times t1 and t2, the position at the end of each 2 s interval can be computed; see column 6 of the table and the xt curve.

PROBLEM 11.CQ1 A bus travels the 100 miles between A and B at 50 mi/h and then another 100 miles between B and C at 70 mi/h. The average speed of the bus for the entire 200-mile trip is: (a) more than 60 mi/h (b) equal to 60 mi/h (c) less than 60 mi/h
SOLUTION The time required for the bus to travel from A to B is 2 h and from B to C is 100/70 1.43 h, so the total time is 3.43 h and the average speed is 200/3.43 58 mph. Answer: (c)
PROBLEM 11CQ2 Two cars A and B race each other down a straight road. The position of each car as a function of time is shown. Which of the following statements are true (more than one answer can be correct)? (a) At time t2 both cars have traveled the same distance (b) At time t1 both cars have the same speed (c) Both cars have the same speed at some time t < t1 (d) Both cars have the same acceleration at some time t < t1 (e) Both cars have the same acceleration at some time t1 < t < t2
SOLUTION The speed is the slope of the curve, so answer c) is true. The acceleration is the second derivative of the position. Since A’s position increases linearly the second derivative will always be zero. The second derivative of curve B is zero at the pont of inflection which occurs between t1 and t2. Answers: (c) and (e)

PROBLEM 11.CQ3 Two model rockets are fired simultaneously from a ledge and follow the trajectories shown. Neglecting air resistance, which of the rockets will hit the ground first? (a) A (b) B (c) They hit at the same time. (d ) The answer depends on h.
SOLUTION The motion in the vertical direction depends on the initial velocity in the y-direction. Since A has a larger initial velocity in this direction it will take longer to hit the ground. Answer: (b)
PROBLEM 11.CQ4 Ball A is thrown straight up. Which of the following statements about the ball are true at the highest point in its path? (a) The velocity and acceleration are both zero. (b) The velocity is zero, but the acceleration is not zero. (c) The velocity is not zero, but the acceleration is zero. (d) Neither the velocity nor the acceleration are zero.
SOLUTION At the highest point the velocity is zero. The acceleration is never zero. Answer: (b)

PROBLEM 11.CQ5 Ball A is thrown straight up with an initial speed v0 and reaches a maximum elevation h before falling back down. When A reaches its maximum elevation, a second ball is thrown straight upward with the same initial speed v0. At what height, y, will the balls cross paths? (a)
yh
(b)
y h/2
(c)
y h/2
(d)
y h/2
(e)
y0
SOLUTION When the ball is thrown up in the air it will be constantly slowing down until it reaches its apex, at which point it will have a speed of zero. So, the time it will take to travel the last half of the distance to the apex will be longer than the time it takes for the first half. This same argument can be made for the ball falling from the maximum elevation. It will be speeding up, so the first half of the distance will take longer than the second half. Therefore, the balls should cross above the half-way point. Answer: (b)

SOLUTION The tangential acceleration is zero since the speed is constant, so there will only be normal acceleration. The normal acceleration will be maximum where the radius of curvature is a minimum that is at Point A. Answer: (a)
