Jorge forgot his headphones on the way to Chicago so Jose, sitting 2 rows behind him on the plane, tosses Jorge his extra set. Jose tosses them at .5m/s. If the plane is traveling at 330m/s, how fast are the headphones moving relative to Griselda on the ground in Denver? *assume Griselda is watching in a parallel frame of reference
What is 330m/s + .5m/s = 330.5m/s assuming the plane is moving parallel to Griselda.

This value can be ignored when determining the total energy of a system because energy is conserved.
What is the mass. KE = PE 1/2mv^2 = mgh

A soccer ball reaches this maximum height when kicked from the ground (and lands on the ground) at a 25 degree angle going 13m/s.
What is y=1/2at^2 +Vyt+0 0 = 1/2(-9.8m/s^2)t^2 + 13sin25m/s * t 0=t(-4.9m/s^2 * t + 13sin25m/s) 4.9m/s^2 *t = 13sin25m/s t = 13sin25/4.9 = 1.12s (rounded, use whole # to find y) y = 1/2(-9.8m/s^2)(1.121232123/2)^2 + 13sin25*1.121232123/2 HALF THE TIME y=1.54m

Newton's first law states...
What is an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion - in a straight line at a constant speed - unless acted upon by an outside force.

Jennifer flips a coin while sitting in the front seat (passenger side) of her car traveling down the highway. This is the reason the coin lands in her hand.
What is horizontal and vertical velocities are independent of each other. The coin has the velocity of Jennifer and the car and will land in the same place as both of them.
