Kinematics in 2D PHYS 125 - Week 3 17 Concept Question: 2D Two Body Problem There’s a new carnival game at the Houston Rodeo in which you must hit a metal can with a magnetic arrow. What’s the catch? Well, at the exact instant that you launch the arrow, this releases the can and it falls straight downwards. Knowing this, and neglecting air resistance, where should you aim the arrow to ensure that it will hit the can? A. Slightly above the can B. Directly at the can C. Slightly below the can PHYS 125 - Week 2 18 Example: Solving a 2D Two Body Problem There’s a new carnival game at the Houston Rodeo in which you must hit a metal can with a magnetic arrow.

PHYS 125 - Week 3 40 Concept Question: Friction on an incline During Kayak Cross, the athletes start by sliding down a 6 m long incline into the water. Each athlete has applied a different amount and type of waxed coating to their boat, such that their boats have different coefficients of kinetic friction with the ramp’s surface: Green athlete: μk = 0.20 Blue athlete: μk = 0.07 Red athlete: μk = 0.10 Yellow athlete: μk = 0.03 Which athlete has the largest acceleration down the incline? Men’s Kayak Cross at the Summer Olympics 2024 A) The green athlete. B) The red athlete. C) The blue athlete. D) The yellow athlete. E) The acceleration will be the same. PHYS 125 - Week 3 41 Example: Solving a force problem with tension A 60 kg climber attached to a safety rope with a tension of 288 N has made it to the top of a 15 m climbing wall. What is her acceleration when she lets go of the wall? (Assume upwards is the positive direction).

The component of motion in the vertical direction is “free fall,” with acceleration due to gravity. Now, given what we’ve learned about Newton’s laws and drawing free body diagrams, can you prove why the above statements are true about projectile motion? Use the following scenario from last week’s slide set: A long jump athlete jumps with an initial velocity of 10 m/s at a takeoff angle of 60 degrees.
