A projectile of mass 0.877 kg is shot straight up with an initial speed of 27.3 m/s. (a) How high would it go if there were no air resistance? (b) If the projectile rises to a maximum height of only 8.49 m, determine the magnitude of the average force due to air resistance.

Power can be defined as a. the distance over which work was done. b. how much work can be done in a given time. c. all the work in an given area. d. the energy required to do work.

You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. the rock passes you on its way down, 7.00 s after it was thrown. what is the speed of the rock just before it reaches the water 28.0 m below the point where the rock left your hand? ignore air resistance.

Alarge cruise ship of mass 7.00 ✕ 107 kg has a speed of 11.6 m/s at some instant. (a) what is the ship's kinetic energy at this time? (b) how much work is required to stop it? (give the work done on the ship. include the sign of the value in your answer.) (c) what is the magnitude of the constant force required to stop it as it undergoes a displacement of 3.00 km?
