Awhale swims due east for a distance of 6.9 km, turns around and goes due west for 1.8 km, and finally turns around again and heads 3.7 km due east, (a) what is the total distance traveled by the whale? (b) what are the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the whale?

Using the free-body diagram, calculate the net force acting on the sled. is the sled in a state of dynamic equilibrium?

Abasketball star covers 2.65 m horizontally in a jump to dunk the ball. his motion through space can be modeled precisely as that of a particle at his center of mass. his center of mass is at elevation 1.02 m when he leaves the floor. it reaches a maximum height of 1.90 m above the floor and is at elevation 0.910 m when he touches down again. (a) determine his time of flight (his "hang time"). (b) determine his horizontal velocity at the instant of takeoff. (c) determine his vertical velocity at the instant of takeoff. (d) determine his takeoff angle. (e) for comparison, determine the hang time of a whitetail deer making a jump with center-of-mass elevations yi = 1.20 m, ymax = 2.45 m, and yf = 0.750 m.
