After a reaction time of 0.3 seconds, he applies the brakes and decelerates at a constant rate of 4 m/s2 . If the deer takes 5 seconds from t = 0 to react and leave the road, does the motorist miss it? Solution: Divide the time into two intervals, the reaction time of the motorist (0.3 s) and the time before the deer leaves the road (5 0.3 = 4.7 s). The initial velocity is
v(0) = 100 km = 27.8 m/s. h

Problem 13.31 A high-speed rail transportation system has a top speed of 100 m/s. For the comfort of the passengers, the magnitude of the acceleration and deceleration is limited to 2 m/s2 . Determine the time required for a trip of 100 km. Strategy: A graphical approach can help you solve this problem. Recall that the change in the position from an initial time t0 to a time t is equal to the area dened by the graph of the velocity as a function of time from t0 to t . Solution: Divide the time of travel into three intervals: The time required to reach a top speed of 100 m/s, the time traveling at top speed, and the time required to decelerate from top speed to zero. From symmetry, the rst and last time intervals are equal, and the distances traveled during these intervals are equal. The initial time is obtained from v(t1 ) = at1 , from which t1 = 100/2 = 50 s. The distance trav2 /2 from which s(t ) = 2(50)2 /2 = eled during this time is s(t1 ) = at1 1 2500 m. The third time interval is given by v(t3 ) = at3 + 100 = 0, from which t3 = 100/2 = 50 s. Check.

The time of travel is obtained from the distance traveled at zero acceleration: s(t2 ) = 95000 = 100t2 , from which t2 = 950. The total time of travel is ttotal = t1 + t2 + t3 = 50 + 950 + 50 = 1050 s

Ignoring relative motion between the solar system and Proxima Centauri, suppose that a spacecraft accelerates from the vicinity of the Earth at 0.01 g (0.01 times the acceleration due to gravity at sea level) until it reaches one-tenth the speed of light, coasts until time to decelerate, then decelerates at 0.01 g until it comes to rest in the vicinity of Proxima Centauri. How long does the trip take? (Light travels at 3 108 m/s. A solar year is 365.2422 solar days.) Solution: The distance to Proxima Centauri is
d = (4.22 light - year)(3 108 m/s)(365.2422 day) = 3.995 1016 m. Divide the time of ight into the three intervals. The time required to reach 0.1 times the speed of light is t1 = v 3 107 m/s = 3.0581 108 seconds. = a 0.0981 m/s2 86400 s 1 day where v(0) = 0 and s(0) = 0 (from the conditions in the problem), from which s(t1 ) = 4.587 1015 m. From symmetry, t3 = t1 , and s(t1 ) = s(t3 ). The length of the middle interval is s(t2 ) = d s(t1 ) s(t3 ) = 3.0777 1016 m. The time of ight at constant velocity is t2 = 3.0777 1016 m = 1.026 109 seconds. 3 107

The brakes are then applied, and the car has a constant acceleration a = 30 ft/s2 until it comes to rest. Determine (a) the maximum velocity, (b) the total distance traveled; (c) the total time of travel. Solution:
(a) For the rst interval, the velocity is v(t) = (5 + 2t) dt + v(0) = 5t + t 2 (c) the total time of travel is t2 = 15. The total distance traveled is s(t2 10) = a (t2 10)2 + v(10)(t2 10) + s(10), 2

from which (b) s(5) = 30 2 5 + 150(5) + 583.33 = 958.33 ft 2

since v(0) = 0. The velocity is an increasing monotone function; hence the maximum occurs at the end of the interval, t = 10 s, from which vmax = 150 ft/s . (b) The distance traveled in the rst interval is s(10) =

From t = 6 s until it comes to rest, its acceleration is a = 4 m/s2 . (a) (b) What is the total time of travel? What total distance does the point move?
The total time of travel is (a) (b) ttotal = 39.5 + 6 = 45.5 seconds. The distance traveled is s(t 6) = 4 (t 6)2 + v(6)(t 6) + s(6) 2

Solution: For the rst interval the velocity is

v(t) = (2 + 2t 2 ) dt + v(0) = 2t + 2 3 t + 2 m/s. 3

The velocity at the end of the interval is v(6) = 158 m/s. The displacement in the rst interval is s(t) = 2t + 2 3 t +2 3 dt + 6 = t 2 + 1 4 t + 2t + 6. 6

Problem 13.35 Zoologists studying the ecology of the Serengeti Plain estimate that the average adult cheetah can run 100 km/h and that the average springbuck can run 65 km/h. If the animals run along the same straight line, start at the same time, and are each assumed to have constant acceleration and reach top speed in 4 s, how close must the a cheetah be when the chase begins to catch a springbuck in 15 s? Solution: The top speeds are Vc = 100 km/h = 27.78 m/s for the cheetah, and Vs = 65 km/h = 18.06 m/s. The acceleration is ac = Vc Vs = 6.94 m/s2 for the cheetah, and as = = 4.513 m/s2 for the 4 4 springbuck. Divide the intervals into the acceleration phase and the chase phase. For the cheetah, the distance traveled in the rst is 6.94 2 sc (t) = (4) = 55.56 m. The total distance traveled at the end 2 of the second phase is stotal = Vc (11) + 55.56 = 361.1 m. For the springbuck, the distance traveled during the acceleration phase is 4.513 2 ss (t) = (4) = 36.11 m. The distance traveled at the end of the 2 second phase is ss (t) = 18.06(11) + 36.1 = 234.7 m. The permissible separation between the two at the beginning for a successful chase is d = sc (15) ss (15) = 361.1 234.7 = 126.4 m

Problem 13.36 Suppose that a person unwisely drives 75 mi/h in a 55 mi/h zone and passes a police car going 55 mi/h in the same direction. If the police begin constant acceleration at the instant they are passed and increase their speed to 80 mi/h in 4 s, how long does it take them to be even with the pursued car? Solution: The conversion from mi/h to ft/s is
1.467 ft h mi second .

The acceleration of the police car is a= (80 55)(1.467) ft/s = 9.169 ft/s2 . 4s

The distance traveled during acceleration is s(t1 ) = 9.169 2 (4) + 55(1.467)(4) = 396 ft. 2

The distance traveled by the pursued car during this acceleration is sc (t1 ) = 75(1.467)t1 = 110(4) = 440 ft. The separation between the two cars at 4 seconds is d = 440 396 = 44 ft. This distance is traversed in the time t2 = 44 = 6. (80 75)(1.467)

The total time is ttotal = 6 + 4 = 10 seconds.

Solution: Use the chain rule to obtain

dv = a, v ds where a is constant. Separate variables and integrate: v 2 = 2as + C . At s = 0, v(0) = 40 5280 3600 = 58.67 ft/s,

The velocity is as a function of time is v(t) = v(0) + at = 58.67 + 7.817t ft/s. The distance from A is s(t) = 58.67t + 7.817 2 t . 2

Problem 13.184 Suppose you throw a ball straight up at 10 m/s and release it at 2 m above the ground. (a) What maximum height above the ground does the ball reach? (b) How long after release it does the ball hit the ground? (c) What is the magnitude of its velocity just before it hits the ground? Solution: The equations of motion for the ball are
ay = g = 9.81 m/s2 , vy = vy 0 gt = 10 9.81t (m/s), and y = y0 + vy 0 t gt 2 /2 = 2 + 10t 9.81t 2 /2 (m). (a) The maximum height occurs when the velocity is zero. Call this time t = t1 . It can be obtained by setting velocity to zero, i.e., vy = 0 = 10 9.81t1 (m/s). Solving, we get t1 = 1.02 s. Substituting this time into the y equation, we get a maximum height of yMAX = 7.10 m. (b) The ball hits the ground when y = 0 m. To nd out when this occurs, we set y = 0 m into the y equation and solve for the time(s) when this occurs. There will be two times, one positive and one negative. Only the positive time has meaning for us. Let this time be t = t2 . The equation for t2 is y = 0 = 2 + 10t2 9.81t 2 2 /2 (m). Solving, we get t2 = 2.22 s.

(c) The velocity at impact is determined by substituting t2 = 2.22 s into the equation for vy . Doing this, we nd that at impact, vy = 11.8 m/s

Assume that cars will be approaching the intersection traveling as fast as 65 mi/h, that the drivers reaction times are as long as 0.5 s, and that cars can safely achieve a deceleration of at least 0.4g . (a) (b) How long must the light remain yellow to allow drivers to come to a stop safely before the light turns red? What is the minimum distance cars must be from the intersection when the light turns yellow to come to a stop safely at the intersection?

2 + V t , from which s(t ) = 353.14 ft. s(t)0 = 0.2gt0 0 0 0

Solution: The speed-time equation from initial speed to stop is

given by integrating the equation

ds = 0.4gt + V0 , and s(t) = 0.2gt 2 + V0 t, dt where V0 is the initial speed and the distance is referenced from the point where the brakes are applied. The initial speed is: V0 (a) 65 mi 1h 5280 ft 1 mi 1h 3600 s = 95.33 ft/s.

The distance traveled during the reaction time is d = V0 (0.5) = 95.33(0.5) = 47.66 ft, from which the total distance is dt = 353.14 + 47.66 = 400.8 ft

Problem 13.187 A model rocket takes off straight up. Its acceleration during the 2 s its motor burns is 25 m/s2 . Neglect aerodynamic drag, and determine (a) (b) the maximum velocity of the rocket during the ight and the maximum altitude the rocket reaches.

Solution: The strategy is to solve the equations of motion for the two phases of the ight: during burn 0 t 2 s seconds, and after burnout: t > 2 s.
Phase 1: The acceleration is: ds d2s = 25t, and s(t) = 12.5t 2 , = 25, from which dt 2 dt since the initial velocity and position are zero. The velocity at burnout is Vburnout = (25)(2) = 50 m/s. The altitude at burnout is hburnout = (12.5)(4) = 50 m. Phase 2. The acceleration is: ds d2s = g(t 2) + Vburnout (t 2), and = g, from which dt 2 dt s(t) = g(t 2)2 /2 + Vburnout (t 2) + hburnout , (t 2). The velocity during phase 1 is constantly increasing because of the rockets positive acceleration. Maximum occurs at burnout because after burnout, the rocket has negative acceleration and velocity constantly decreases until it reaches zero at maximum altitude. The velocity from maximum altitude to impact must be constantly increasing since the rocket is falling straight down under the action of gravity. Thus the maximum velocity during phase 2 occurs when the rocket impacts the ground. The issue of maximum velocity becomes this: is the velocity at burnout greater or less than the velocity at ground impact? The time of ight is given by 0 = g(tight 2)2 /2 + Vburnout (tight 2) + hburnout , from which, in canonical form: (tight 2)2 + 2b(tight 2) + c = 0, where b = (Vburnout /g) and c = (2hburnout /g). The solution (tight 2) = b b2 c = 11.11, = 0.92 s. Since the negative time is not allowed, the time of ight is tight = 13.11 s. The velocity at impact is Vimpact = g(tight 2) + Vburnout = 59 m/s which is higher in magnitude than the velocity at burnout. The time of maximum altitude is given by ds = 0 = g(tmax alt 2) + Vburnout , dt tmax alt 2 = Vburnout = 5.1 s, g from which from which

tmax alt = 7.1 s. The maximum altitude is g hmax = (tmax alt 2)2 + Vburnout (tmax alt 2) + hburnout = 177.42 m 2

Problem 13.196 In the cam-follower mechanism, the slotted bar rotates with a constant angular velocity = 12 rad/s, and the radial position of the follower A is determined by the prole of the stationary cam. The slotted bar is pinned a distance h = 0.2 m to the left of the center of the circular cam. The follower moves in a circular path of 0.42 m radius. Determine the velocity of the follower when = 40 (a) in terms of polar coordinates, and (b) in terms of cartesian coordinates.

Solution:
(a) The rst step is to get an equation for the path of the follower in terms of the angle . This can be most easily done by referring to the diagram at the right. Using the law of cosines, we can write R 2 = h2 + r 2 2hr cos . This can be rewritten as r 2 2hr cos + (h2 R 2 ) = 0. We need to nd the components of . We can differentiate and v = r the velocity. These are vr = r the relation derived from the law of cosines to get r . Carrying sin = 0. out this differentiation, we get 2r r 2hr cos + 2hr Solving for r , we get r = sin hr . (h cos r)

and substituting in the numerical values, Recalling that = i.e., R = 0.42 m, h = 0.2 m, = 12 rad/s, and = 40 , we get r = 0.553 m, vr = 2.13 m/s, and v = 6.64 m/s (b) The transformation to cartesian coordinates can be derived from er = cos i + sin j, and e = sin i + cos j. Substituting these into v = vr er + v e , we get v = (vr cos v sin )i + (vr sin + v cos )j. Substituting in the numbers, v = 5.90i + 3.71j (m/s)

Problem 13.197* In Problem 13.196, determine the acceleration of the follower when = 40 (a) in terms of polar coordinates and (b) in terms of cartesian coordinates. Solution:
(a) Information from the solution to Problem 13.196 will be used in this solution. In order to determine the components of the acceleration in polar coordinates, we need to be able to determine 2 and r all of the variables in the right hand sides of ar = r + 2r . We already know everything except r and that a = r . Since is constant, = = 0. We need only to nd the value for r and the value for r at = 40 . Substituting into the original equation for r , we nd that r = 0.553 m at this position on the cam. To nd r , we start with r = vr . Taking a derivative, sin = 0 from Problem 13.196 we start with r r hr cos + hr (we divided through by 2). Taking a derivative with respect to time, we get r = sin + hr 2 cos + hr sin r 2 + 2hr . (h cos r) Evaluating, we get r = 46.17 m/s2 . Substituting this into the equation for ar and evaluating an , we get ar = 125.81 m/s2 and a = 51.2 m/s2 (b) The transformation of cartesian coordinates can be derived from er = cos i + sin j, and e = sin i + cos j. Substituting these into a = ar er + ae e , we get a = ar er + a e , we get a = (ar cos a sin )i + (ar sin + a cos )j. Substituting in the numbers, we get a = 63.46 i 120.1 j(m/s2 ).
