    Chapter 12:
    Problem 12.9

    If it takes 3 s for a ball to strike the ground when it


    is released from rest, determine the height in meters
    of the building from which it was released. Also,
    what is the velocity of the ball when it strikes the
    ground?
    Problem 12.24

    A particle is moving along a straight line such that


    its velocity is defined as v = (−4s 2 ) m/s, where s is
    in meters. If s = 2 m when t = 0, determine the
    velocity and acceleration as functions of time.
    Problem 12.27

    A particle is moving along a straight line such that


    when it is at the origin it has a velocity of 4 m/s. If
    it begins to decelerate at the rate of a = (−1.5v 1/2 )
    m/s2 , where v is in m/s, determine the distance it
    travels before it stops.
    Problem 12.31

    The acceleration of a particle along a straight line is


    defined by a = (2t − 9) m/s2 , where t is in seconds.
    At t = 0, s = 1m and v = 10 m/s. When t = 9s,
    determine (a) the particles position, (b) the total
    distance traveled, and (c) the velocity.
    Problem 12.45
    The snowmobile moves along a straight course
    according to the v − t graph. Construct the s − t
    and a − t graphs for the same 50-s time interval.
    When t = 0, s = 0.
    Problem 12.55
    A race car starting from rest travels along a straight
    road and for 10 s has the acceleration shown.
    Construct the v − t graph that describes the motion
    and find the distance traveled in 10 s.
    Problem 12.76

    The velocity of a particle is given by


    v = {16t 2 i + 4t 3 j + (5t + 2)k m/s, where t is in
    seconds. If the particle is at the origin when t = 0,
    determine the magnitude of the particles
    acceleration when t = 2s. Also, what is the x, y , z
    coordinate position of the particle at this instant?
    Problem 12.82

    A rocket is fired from rest at x = 0 and travels


    along a parabolic trajectory described by
    y 2 = [120(103 )x]m. If the x component of
    acceleration is ax = 14 t 2 )m/s2 , where t is in
    seconds, determine the magnitude of the rockets
    velocity and acceleration when t = 10 s.
    Problem 12.86
    When a rocket reaches an altitude of 40 m it begins
    to travel along the parabolic path (y − 40)2 = 160x,
    where the coordinates are measured in meters. If
    the component of velocity in the vertical direction is
    constant at vy = 180m/s, determine the
    magnitudes of the rockets velocity and acceleration
    when it reaches an altitude of 80 m.
