OF SCIENCE AND PHYSICS
1.2 PHYSICAL QUANTITIES AND UNITS
- American football is played on a 100-yd-long field, excluding the end zones. How long is the field in meters? (Assume that 1 meter equals 3.281 feet.)
Solution Since 3 feet = 1 yard and 3.281 feet = 1 meter, multiply 100 yards by these conversion factors to cancel the units of yards, leaving the units of meters:
- 4 m 3.281ft
1 m 1 yd
100 yd= 100 yd×^3 ft× =
A football field is 91.4 m long.
- (a) Refer to Table 1.3 to determine the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. Then calculate the average speed of the Earth in its orbit in kilometers per second. (b) What is this in meters per second?
Solution (a) The average speed of the earth’s orbit around the sun is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time it takes to go one revolution:
20 km/s 3600 s

The earth travels at an average speed of 20 km/s around the sun.

1.3 ACCURACY, PRECISION, AND SIGNIFICANT FIGURES
- (a) Suppose that a person has an average heart rate of 72.0 beats/min. How many beats does he or she have in 2.0 y? (b) In 2.00 y? (c) In 2.000 y?
Solution (a) To calculate the number of beats she has in 2.0 years, we need to multiply 72. beats/minute by 2.0 years and use conversion factors to cancel the units of time:
× × ×
1.00d
24.0 h 1.00 h
60.0 min 1 min
72.0 beats 2.0y 7.5738 10 beats 1.00y
365.25 d× = × 7
Since there are only 2 significant figures in 2.0 years, we must report the answer with 2 significant figures: 7.6 × 107 beats.
(b) Since we now have 3 significant figures in 2.00 years, we now report the answer with 3 significant figures: 7.57 × 107 beats.
(c) Even though we now have 4 significant figures in 2.000 years, the 72. beats/minute only has 3 significant figures, so we must report the answer with 3 significant figures: 7.57 × 107 beats.
- A person measures his or her heart rate by counting the number of beats in 30 s_._ If 40 ± 1 beats are counted in 30. 0 ± 0. 5 s , what is the heart rate and its uncertainty in beats per minute?
Solution To calculate the heart rate, we need to divide the number of beats by the time and convert to beats per minute.

CHAPTER 2: KINEMATICS
2.1 DISPLACEMENT
- Find the following for path A in Figure 2.59: (a) The distance traveled. (b) The magnitude of the displacement from start to finish. (c) The displacement from start to finish.
Solution (a) The total distance traveled is the length of the line from the dot to the arrow in path A, or 7 m. (b) The distance from start to finish is the magnitude of the difference between the position of the arrows and the position of the dot in path A: ∆ x = x 2 − x 1 = 7 m− 0 m= 7 m
(c) The displacement is the difference between the value of the position of the arrow and the value of the position of the dot in path A: The displacement can be either positive or negative: ∆ x = x 2 − x 1 = 7 m− 0 m=+ 7 m
2.3 TIME, VELOCITY, AND SPEED
- A football quarterback runs 15.0 m straight down the playing field in 2.50 s. He is then hit and pushed 3.00 m straight backward in 1.75 s. He breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 21.0 m in 5.20 s. Calculate his average velocity (a) for each of the three intervals and (b) for the entire motion.
Solution (a) The average velocity for the first segment is the distance traveled downfield (the positive direction) divided by the time he traveled:
6.00m/s (forward) 2.50 s
15.0 m time

The average velocity for the second segment is the distance traveled (this time in the negative direction because he is traveling backward) divided by the time he

3.00 m 2

Finally, the average velocity for the third segment is the distance traveled (positive again because he is again traveling downfield) divided by the time he

(b) To calculate the average velocity for the entire motion, we add the displacement from each of the three segments (remembering the sign of the numbers), and divide by the total time for the motion:
3.49 m/s 2.50s 1.75s 5.20 s
15.0m 3.00m 21.0 m total

v =
Notice that the average velocity for the entire motion is not just the addition of the average velocities for the segments.
- The planetary model of the atom pictures electrons orbiting the atomic nucleus much as planets orbit the Sun. In this model you can view hydrogen, the simplest atom, as having a single electron in a circular orbit 1. 06 × 10 −^10 m in diameter. (a) If the average speed of the electron in this orbit is known to be 2. 20 × 106 m/s , calculate the number of revolutions per second it makes about the nucleus. (b) What is the electron’s average velocity?
Solution (a) The average speed is defined as the total distance traveled divided by the elapsed
time, so that: 2. 20 10 m/s timeelapsed
average speed=distancetraveled= ×^6
If we want to find the number of revolutions per second, we need to know how far the electron travels in one revolution.

So to calculate the number of revolutions per second, we need to divide the average speed by the distance traveled per revolution, thus canceling the units of

(b) Knowns: “Accelerated from rest” v 0 = 0 m/s
“to 30.0 cm/s” v =0.300m/s “in a distance of 1.80 cm” x − x 0 = 0.0180m. (c) “How long” tells us to find t. To determine which equation to use, we look for an equation that has (^) v 0 (^) , v , x − x 0 and (^) t , since those are parameters that we know or
want to know. Using the equations x x vt

It takes 120 ms to accelerate the blood from rest to 30.0 cm/s. Converting everything to standard units first makes it easy to see that the units of meters cancel, leaving only the units of seconds.
(d) Yes, the answer is reasonable. An entire heartbeat cycle takes about one second. The time for acceleration of blood out of the ventricle is only a fraction of the entire cycle.

- Professional Application A woodpecker’s brain is specially protected from large decelerations by tendon-like attachments inside the skull. While pecking on a tree, the woodpecker’s head comes to a stop from an initial velocity of 0.600 m/s in a distance of only 2.00 mm. (a) Find the acceleration in m/s^2 and in multiples of g ( g = 9. 80 m/s^2 ). (b) Calculate the stopping time. (c) The tendons cradling the brain stretch, making its stopping distance 4.50 mm (greater than the head and, hence, less deceleration of the brain). What is the brain’s deceleration, expressed in multiples of g?
Solution (a) Find^ a^ (which should be negative).
Given: “comes to a stop” v = 0 m/s.
“from an initial velocity of” v 0 = 0. 600 m/s.
“in a distance of 2.00 m” x − x 0 =2.00 × 10 -3m.
So, we need an equation that involves a , v , v 0 ,and x − x 0 ,or the equation
v^2 = v 02 + 2 a ( x − x 0 ), so that
