BackA survey drone has just completed a scan at x,y coordinates (57m, 8m) at t=0. It needs to return to a lab located at (-115, 72) m. If its initial velocity is 16m/s in the +y-direction, and it has only 18s of battery life remaining, what constant acceleration (magnitude and direction) does it need to reach the lab?
A 4.0 x 1010 kg asteroid is heading directly toward the center of the earth at a steady 20 km/s. To save the planet, astronauts strap a giant rocket to the asteroid perpendicular to its direction of travel. The rocket generates 5.0 x 109 N of thrust. The rocket is fired when the asteroid is 4.0 x 106 km away from earth. You can ignore the earth's gravitational force on the asteroid and their rotation about the sun.The radius of the earth is 6400 km. By what minimum angle must the asteroid be deflected to just miss the earth?

If the mission fails, how many hours is it until the asteroid impacts the earth?
(II) At t = 0, a particle starts from rest at 𝓍 = 0, y = 0 and moves in the xy plane with an acceleration = (4.0 î + 3.0 ĵ ) m/s². Determine the speed of the particle as a function of time.
A skier is accelerating down a 30.0° hill at 1.80 m/s² (Fig. 3–42). How long will it take her to reach the bottom of the hill, assuming she starts from rest and accelerates uniformly, if the elevation change is 125 m?

A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.90 m above the ground at an angle of 64° with an initial speed of 28 m/s heading toward centerfield. Ignore air resistance. The ball is caught by the centerfielder who, starting at a distance of 105 m from home plate just as the ball was hit, runs straight toward home plate at a constant speed and makes the catch at ground level. Find his speed.
Two masses are connected by a string as shown in Fig. 8–35. Mass mA = 3.5 kg rests on a frictionless inclined plane, while mB = 5.0 kg is initially held at a height of h = 0.75 m above the floor. If the masses were initially at rest, use the kinematic equations (Eqs. 2–12) to find their velocity just before mB hits the floor.
Is this particle curving upward, curving downward, or moving in a straight line?
At t = 0, a particle starts from rest at 𝓍 = 0, y = 0 and moves in the xy plane with an acceleration . Determine the 𝓍 and y components of velocity, the speed of the particle, and the position of the particle, all as a function of time. Evaluate all the above at t = 2.0 s.
