During a small time interval
In the space provided, draw an arrow to indicate the direction of the Instantaneous velocity vector of the car in the reference frame of the truck at instant 2. If the velocity is zero, state that explicitly.
Direction of instantaneous velocity of car in frame of truck at instant 2
Consider the following Statements:
Statement 1: “At: instant 2 the car and the truck arc side by side, so the velocity of the car in thetruck’s frame is zero at that instant.”
Statement 2: “Before instant 2, the truck is catching up to the car, so the truck sees the car as slowing down.”
Do you agree or disagree with each of the statements? Explain.

- You are on the plane neptune and want to determine the acceleration due to gravity, g. You have a stopwatch and a toy gun that can launch a ping pong ball vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 7.5 m/s. Describe, in words, how you would perform an experiment to determine the acceleration due to gravity. Be sure to describe the variables you would measure, the equations you would use and the assumptions you would make. Make sure to include a diagram of the physical situation, label know and unknown quantities with units, coordinate system.

- A. From the perspective of point x, vector a and vector b are approaching with around the same speed. From Joseph's perspective, the two are walking with around the same speed. Determine if vector a is approaching with the same speed, twice the speed, or half the speed from the perspective of vector b. Explain.B. Vectors x and y are moving with uniform velocities. If the image below is t = 0, how long will it take (in seconds) for vector x to be in the same position with vector y? How far should vector x have traveled (in meters) by the time it has overtaken the position of vector y?
