Starting from the front door of your ranch house, you walk 60.0 m due east to your windmill, and then you turn around and slowly walk 40.0 m west to a bench where you sit and watch the sunrise. it takes you 28.0 s to walk from your house to the windmill and then 43.0 s to walk from the windmill to the bench. for the entire trip from your front door to the bench, what is your average velocity?

Aboat that travels with constant speed of 6.10 m/s in still water is to go directly across a river. the current in the river flows at 1.95 m/s. (a) at what angle must the boat be steered?

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?

If we decrease the time it takes for a car to travel over the same distance this will
