Three vector quantities that have appeared in the lessons covered this semester

Displacement, velocity, acceleration, force, tension, normal force, friction

100

The initial velocity of an object that is in free fall:

0 m/s

100

What is another name for the horizontal distance that a projectile can reach?

The range of the projectile

100

The law that states that a force applied to an object receives an equally "strong" force of opposite direction is known as:

The law of action and reaction

100

What food stand is located right to the left of La Flor de Córdoba at Universidad's Ciberplaza?

Gong Cha

200

The total angle of a vector that points 30° Southwest

It's 210°

200

Write the three equations of motion that we can use for an object that is in free fall/vertical throw motion:

1. Vf = Vi - gt

2. Vf^2 = Vi^2 - 2g(yf - yi)

3. yf = yi + vit - 1/2*gt^2

200

The air time of a projectile going up is always the same air time of a projectile going down. This is true or false?

False

200

True or false: The normal force ALWAYS, like, ALWAYS ALWAYS points directly upwards.

False!

200

What is the name of PrepaTec's principal?

300

What is the horizontal component of a velocity that is V = 20 m/s 10° Southeast?

It's 19.7 m/s

300

What is the velocity of a ball just before it hits the ground, if you let it fall from a 16.4 m height?

Vf = -17.94 m/s (or 17.94 m/s going downwards)

300

A tennis ball cannon launches a ball with an initial velocity of 25.5 m/s at 40° above the horizontal. If the ball comes back to the ground in 3.34 s, what is the maximum horizontal distance the arrow can travel?

The range (or maximum horizontal distance) is 65.27 m

300

You pile two boxes on the ground. One box has a mass of 20 kg and the other, smaller box has a mass of 5 kg. What is the normal force in this situation?

Normal force is 245.25 N

A force F1 = 680 N, 20° Northwest is added to another force F2 = 950 N, North. What is the vertical result of the addition of these forces?

Result of the sum of vertical components is 1182. 57 N

A child at the park throws a ball upwards with an estimated velocity of 6.1 m/s. How high does the ball go?

The maximum height is Ymax = 1.90 m
400

An arrow is launched with an initial velocity of 13.1 m/s at an angle of 42° above the horizontal. What is the horizontal component of the velocity when the arrow is at its highest point?

The horizontal velocity at the highest point of the arrow is 9.74 m/s

"I'm always watching people walk by, bringing cold food to my neighbors. Sometimes, people give me money and take my snacks, even though sometimes I don't let them take it. The ladies next to me are always yelling, which is kinda annoying... My life as a ____ of PrepaTec is a bit boring, but I know students need me. I am:

A vending machine (between Guich and the microwaves lol)
