If the velocity is in th e direct ion chosen as negative, a posi tive acceleration causes a decrease in speed. (c) True. For an ac celerating particle to st op at all, the velocity and acceleration m u s t h av e o p p o si t e signs, so that the speed is decreasing. If this is the case, t h e p a r t i cl e w i l l e v e n t u al ly come to rest. If the acceleration remains constant, howev er, the particle mu st begin to move again, oppo site to the direct ion of its origin al velocity. If the particle comes to rest and then stays at re st, the acceleration has b ecome zero at the moment the motion st ops. Th is is the case for a braking car—the acceleration is negative and goes to zero as the car comes to rest. 3. The velocity-vs.-time graph (a) has a constant sl ope, indicating a constant acceleration, which is re presented by the accelera- tion -v s.-time grap h (e). Gra ph (b) re pre se nt s a n obj e ct whose spe ed a l wa ys i nc re a se s, and does so at an ever incr easing rate. Thus, the accelerat ion must be increasing, and the acceler ation-vs.-time graph that best indicates th is behavior is (d). G r a p h ( c ) d e p i c t s a n o b j e ct w h i ch f i r s t h as a veloci ty that increases at a co nstant rate, which means that the object ’s accel- eration is constant. The motion then changes to one at constant sp eed, i ndicating that the acceleration of the object beco mes zero. Thus, the best match to th is si tu at ion i s g raph (f). 4. Ch oi ce (b ). Ac co rdi ng to graph b , there are some inst ants in time when the object is si mu lt an eou sly at two d ifferent x- coordinates. This is physical ly impossibl e. 5.

It shows the pu ck gaining speed fo r approx imately three time intervals, moving at cons tant sp eed for about four time interv al s, then slowing to rest during the last two interv als. (c) Th e green grap h of Figure 2.14d best shows th e puck’s acceleration as a function of time. The puck gains velocity (positive acceleration) for approximately three time intervals, moves at constant ve loci ty (zero acceler ation) for about four time intervals, a nd then loses velocity (negative acceleration) f o r r o u g h l y t h e l as t t wo t i m e i n t e r v als . 6. Choice (e). The acceleration of the ball remains constant while it is in the air. The magnitude of its acceleration is the free- fall acceleration, g = 9 .8 0 m/ s2. 7. Choice (c). As it trav els upward, its speed decreases by 9.80 m/s during each s econd of its motion. When it reaches the peak of its motion, it s speed becomes zero. As the ball moves downwar d, its speed increases by 9.80 m/s each second. 8. Ch oi ces (a) an d (f ).

ANSW ERS TO EVEN NUMBERED CONCEPTUAL QUESTIONS 2. Yes. The particle may stop at some in stant, but still have an acceleration, as when a ball thrown straight up reaches its max i mu m h eigh t . 4. (a) No. They can be used only when the acceleratio n is constant. (b ) Yes. Zero i s a co nst ant .

6. (a) In Figure (c), the images are farther apart for each successive time interval. The object is moving to ward the right and speeding up. This means that the accele ration is positive in Figure (c).

(b ) In Fi g u re (a) , t h e f i rst f o ur images show an increasing distan ce travel ed each time interval and therefore a positive ac- celeration. However, after the fourth imag e, the spacing is decreasing, showing that the object is no w slowing do wn (o r has negative acceleration). (c) In Figure (b), the images are equally spaced, showing that the object mo ved the same distance in each time interval . Hence, the velocity is co nstant in Fi gu re (b ). 8. (a) At the maximum height, the ball is mo me ntarily at rest (i.e., has zero veloci ty ). The acceleration remains constant, with magnitude eq ual to the free-fall acceleration g an d di rect ed d o wn ward . Th u s, ev en th ough t h e v elo ci ty is mo men t ari ly zero, i t cont inues t o change, a nd the bal l will begin to gai n sp eed in the downward di rection. (b) The acceleration of the ball remains constant in magnitude and direction througho ut the ball’s free fl ight, from the instan t it leav es the hand until the instant just before it strikes the ground. The acceleration is direct ed downward and has a magnitude equal to the freefall acceleration g . 10. (a) Su c c e s s iv e i ma g e s on t h e fi l m wi l l b e s e p a rated b y a constant di st an ce if th e ball has constant velo city . (b) Starting at the ri ght-mo st image, the images wi ll be getting closer together as one moves toward the left . (c) Starting at the right-most image, the images will be getting fart her apart as one moves toward the left .

26


(d) As one moves from left to right, th e balls will first get farther apart in each successive image, then cl oser together whe n the ball begins to sl ow do wn . 12. On ce the ball has left the thrower’s hand, it is a freel y falling body wi th a cons tant, nonzero, acceleration of a = íg. Since the acceleration of the ball is not zero at any point on its traj ectory, c h oices (a) through (d) are all false and the co r- rect response is (e).

14. The initi al veloci ty of the car is υ 0 = 0 and the velocity at time t i s υ . The constant acceleration is therefore given by a=
