Tutorial 1 Mec221

1. A sphere is fired downwards into a medium with an initial speed of 27 m/s and experiences a deceleration of -6t m/s^2. The question asks to determine the time and distance traveled when the sphere stops. 2. The document lists questions about rectilinear and curvilinear motion, including the motion of a projectile and a car turning at a constant radius. 3. It also provides problems about the motion of particles along straight lines and parabolic paths to calculate velocity and acceleration at given times.

= 40 m/s and directed at angle of 30 with
the horizontal as shown. Determine the distance, d where the ball strikes the slope at
B.
