PrefaceThisInstructor Solutions Manualhas a twofold purpose. First, and most obvious, is to pro-vide worked solutions for the use of instructors. Second, but equally important, is to provideexamples of good problem-solving techniques and strategies that will benefit your students ifyou post these solutions.Far too many solutions manuals simply plug numbers into equations, thereby reinforcing oneof the worst student habits. The solutions provided here, by contrast, attempt to:•Follow, in detail, the problem-solving strategies presented in the text.•Articulate the reasoning that must be done before computation.•Illustrate how to use drawings effectively.•Demonstrate how to utilize graphs, ratios, units, and the many other“tactics”that must besuccessfully mastered and marshaled if a problem-solving strategy is to be effective.•Show examples of assessing the reasonableness of a solution.•Comment on the significance of a solution or on its relationship to other problems.Most education researchers believe that it is more beneficial for students to study a smallernumber of carefully chosen problems in detail, including variations, than to race through alarger number of poorly understood calculations. The solutions presented here are intendedto provide a basis for this practice.So that you may readily edit and/or post these solutions,they are available for downloadaseditable Worddocumentsand as pdffiles via the “Resources” tab in the textbook’s Instruc-tor Resource Center (www.pearsonhighered.com/educator/catalog/index.page) or from thetextbook’s Instructor Resource Area in MasteringPhysics®(www.masteringphysics.com).We have made every effort to be accurate and correct in these solutions. However, if you dofind errors or ambiguities, we would be very grateful to hear from you.Please contact yourPearson Education sales representative.

ConceptualQuestions1.1.(a)3 significant figures.(b)2significant figures.This is more clearly revealed byusingscientific notation:2 sig. figs.10.535.310−=(c)4significant figures. Thetrailingzerois significantbecause it indicates increased precision.(d)3significant figures.The leading zeros are not significantbut just locate the decimal point.1.2.(a)2significant figures. Trailing zerosin front of the decimal point merely locate the decimal point and arenot significant.(b)3significant figures.Trailing zerosafter the decimal pointare significantbecause they indicate increasedprecision.(c)4 significant figures.(d)3 significant figures.Trailing zeros after the decimal point are significant because they indicate increasedprecision.1.3.Without numbers on the dots we cannot tell if the particle in the figure is moving left or right, so we can’t tellif it is speeding up or slowing down. If the particle is moving to the right it is slowing down. If it is moving to the leftit is speeding up.1.4.Because the velocity vectors get longer foreachtime step, the objectmust bespeeding up as ittravelsto theleft. The accelerationvectormust thereforepointin the same direction as the velocity, so the acceleration vector alsopoints to the left. Thus,xais negative as per our convention (see Tactics Box 1.4).1.5.Because the velocity vectors get shorter for each time step, the objectmust beslowing down as it travels inthey2direction(down). The acceleration vector must therefore point in the direction opposite to the velocity;namely, in the+ydirection (up). Thus,yais positive as per our convention (see Tactics Box 1.4).1.6.The particle position is to the left of zero on thex-axis, so its position is negative. The particle is moving to theright, so its velocity is positive. The particle’s speed is increasing as it moves to the right, so its acceleration vectorpoints in the same direction as its velocity vector (i.e., to the right). Thus, the acceleration is also positive.1.7.The particle position is below zero on they-axis, so its position is negative. The particle is moving down, soits velocity is negative. The particle’s speed is increasing as it moves in the negative direction, so its accelerationvector points in the same direction as its velocity vector (i.e., down). Thus, the acceleration is also negative.CONCEPTS OFMOTION1

1-2Chapter 11.8.The particle position is above zero on they-axis, so its position ispositive. The particle is moving down, so itsvelocity is negative.The particle’s speed is increasing as it moves in the negative direction, so its acceleration vectorpoints in the same direction as its velocity vector (i.e., down). Thus, the acceleration is also negative.Exercisesand ProblemsSection 1.1Motion Diagrams1.1.Model:Imagine a car moving in the positive direction (i.e., to the right). As it skids, it covers less distancebetween each movie frame (or between each snapshot).Solve:Assess:As we go from left to right, the distance between successive images of the cardecreases. Because the timeinterval between eachsuccessiveimage is the same, the car must be slowing down.1.2.Model:We have no information about the acceleration of the rocket, so we will assume that it acceleratesupwardwith a constant acceleration.Solve:Assess:Notice that the length of the velocity vectors increases each step byapproximatelythe length of theacceleration vector.

Concepts of Motion1-31.3.Model:We will assume that the term “quickly” used in the problem statement means a time that is shortcompared to 30 s.Solve:Assess:Notice that the acceleration vector points in the direction oppositeto the velocity vector because the car isdecelerating.Section 1.2The Particle Model1.4.Solve:(a)The basic idea of the particle model is that we will treat an objectas ifall its mass is concentratedinto a single point. The size and shape of the object will not be considered. This is a reasonable approximation ofreality if (i) the distance traveled by the object is large in comparison to the size of the object and (ii) rotations andinternal motions are not significant features of the object’s motion. The particle model is important in that it allowsus tosimplifya problem. Complete reality—which would have to include the motion of every single atom in theobject—is too complicated to analyze. By treating an object as a particle, we can focus on the most important aspectsof its motion while neglecting minor and unobservable details.(b)The particle model is valid for understanding the motion of a satellite or a car traveling a large distance.(c)The particle model is not valid for understanding how a car engine operates, how a person walks, how a bird flies,or how water flows through a pipe.Section 1.3Position and TimeSection 1.4Velocity1.5.Model:We model the ball’s motion from the instant after it is released, when it has zero velocity, to theinstant before it hits the ground, when it will have its maximum velocity.Solve:

1-4Chapter 1Assess:Notice that the “particle”we have drawn has a finite dimensions,soitappears as if the bottom half of this“particle”haspenetrated intothe ground in the bottom frame. This is not really the case;ourmentalparticlehas nosize andislocatedatthetip of the velocity vector arrow.1.6.Solve:The player starts from rest and movesfaster and faster.1.7.Solve:Theplayerstarts with an initial velocity but asheslideshemoves slower and sloweruntilcoming torest.Section 1.5Linear Acceleration1.8.Solve:(a)Let0vbe the velocity vector between points 0 and 1 and1vbe the velocity vector between points1 and 2. Speed1vis greater than speed0vbecause more distance is covered in the same interval of time.(b)To find the acceleration, use the method of Tactics Box 1.3:Assess:The acceleration vector points in the same direction as the velocity vectors, which makes sense because thespeed is increasing.1.9.Solve:(a)Let0vbe the velocity vector between points 0 and 1 and1vbe the velocity vector between points 1and 2. Speed1vis greater than speed0vbecause more distance is covered in the same interval of time.(b)Acceleration is found by the method of Tactics Box 1.3.Assess:The acceleration vector points in the same direction as the velocity vectors, which makes sense because thespeed is increasing.

Concepts of Motion1-51.10.Solve:(a)(b)1.11.Solve:(a)(b)1.12.Model:Represent the car as a particle.Visualize:The dots are equally spaced until brakes are applied to the car. Equidistant dotson a single lineindicateconstant averagevelocity. Upon braking, the dots get closeras the averagevelocitydecreases,andthe distancebetweendotschanges by a constant amount because theaccelerationis constant.1.13.Model:Represent the (child+ sled) system as a particle.Visualize:The dots in the figure are equally spaced until the sled encounters a rocky patch. Equidistant dotson asingle lineindicate constant averagevelocity. On encountering a rocky patch, the averagevelocitydecreases and thesled comes to a stop. This part of the motion is indicated by adecreasingseparation between the dots.1.14.Model:Represent the wad of paper as a particle. Ignore air resistance.

1-6Chapter 1Visualize:The dots become more closely spaced because the particle experiences a downwardacceleration. Thedistance between dots changes by a constant amount because theaccelerationis constant.1.15.Model:Represent the tile as a particle.Visualize:Starting from rest, the tile’s velocity increases until it hits the water surface. This part ofthe motion isrepresented by dots with increasing separation, indicating increasing average velocity. After the tile enters the water,it settles to the bottom at roughly constant speed, so this part of the motion is represented by equally spaced dots.1.16.Model:Represent the tennis ball as a particle.Visualize:The ball falls freely for three stories. Upon impact, it quickly decelerates to zero velocity while comp-ressing, then accelerates rapidly while re-expanding. As vectors, both the deceleration and acceleration are an upwardvector.The downward and upward motions of the ball are shownseparatelyin the figure. The increasing length betweenthe dots during downward motion indicates an increasing average velocity or downward acceleration. On the other hand,the decreasing length between the dots during upward motion indicates acceleration in a direction opposite to themotion,so the average velocity decreases.Assess:Forfree-fall motion, acceleration due to gravity is always vertically downward.Notice that the accelerationdue to the ground is quite large (although not to scale—that would take too much space) because in a time intervalmuch shorter than the timeintervalbetweenthepoints, thevelocity of the ball isessentiallycompletelyreversed.

That is, motion down the ramp is under a constant accelerationaAt the bottom of the ramp, the toycar continues with aconstant velocityand no acceleration.Section 1.6Motion in One Dimension1.18.Solve:(a)DotTime (s)x(m)(b)1002230349546215584006105107126008146709167201.19.Solve:A forgetful physics professoriswalking from one class to the next. Walking at a constant speed, hecovers a distance of 100 m in 200 s. He then stops and chats with a student for 200 s.Suddenly, herealizes he isgoing to be late for his next class, so the hurries on and covers the remaining 200 m in 200 s to get to class on time.1.20.Solve:Forty miles into a car trip north from his home in El Dorado, an absent-minded English professorstopped at a rest area one Saturday. After staying there for one hour, he headed back home thinking that he wassupposed to go on this trip on Sunday. Absent-mindedly he missed his exit and stopped after one hour of driving atanother rest area 20 miles south of El Dorado. After waiting there for one hour, he drove back very slowly, confusedand tired as he was, and reached El Dorado two hourslater.Section 1.7Solving Problems in Physics1.21.Visualize:The bicycle move forward with an acceleration of21.5 m/s .Thus, the velocity will increase by1.5 m/s each second of motion.

The slope is greatest at D.(c)At points A, C, and E the slope of the curve is zero, so the object is not moving.(d)At point D the slope is negative, so the object is moving to the left.2.7.(a)The slope of the position-versus-time graph is greatest at D, so the object is moving fastest at this point.(b)The slope is negative at points C, D, and E, meaning the object is moving to the left at these points.(c)At point C the slope is increasing in magnitude (getting more negative), meaning that the object is speeding up tothe left.(d)At point B the object is not moving since the slope is zero. Before point B, the slope is positive, while after B it isnegative, so the object is turning around at B.2.8.(a)The positions of the third dots of both motion diagrams are the same, as are the sixth dots of both, so cars Aand B are at the same locations at the time corresponding to dot 3 and again at that of dot 6.(b)The spacing of dots 4 and 5 in both diagrams is the same, so the cars are traveling at the same speeds betweentimes corresponding to dots 4 and 5.KINEMATICS INONEDIMENSION2

2-2Chapter22.9.No, though you have the same position along the road, his velocity is greater because he is passing you. If hisvelocity were not greater, then he would remain even with the front of your car.2.10.Yes. The acceleration vector will point west when the bicycle is slowing down while traveling east.2.11.(a)As a ball tossed upward moves upward, its vertical velocity is positive, while its vertical acceleration isnegative, opposite the velocity, causing the ball to slow down.(b)The same ball on its way down has downward (negative) velocity. The downward negative acceleration ispointing in the same direction as the velocity, causing the speed to increase.2.12.For all three of these situations the acceleration is equal togin the downward direction. The magnitude anddirection of the velocity of the ball do not matter. Gravity pulls down at constant acceleration. (Air friction isignored.)2.13.(a)The magnitude of the acceleration while in free fall is equal togat all times, independent of the initialvelocity. The acceleration only tells how the velocity is changing.(b)The magnitude of the acceleration is stillgbecause the rock is still in free fall. The speed is increasing at the samerate each instant, that is, by the sameveach second.2.14.The ball remains in contact with the floor for a small but noticeable amount of time. It is in free fall when notin contact with the floor. When it hits the floor, it is accelerated very rapidly in the upward direction as it bounces.

Kinematics in One Dimension2-5(b)There is only one turning point. At1 st=the velocity changes from20 m/s+to5 m/s,−thus reversing the directionof motion. At3 s,t=there is an abrupt change in motion from5 m/s−to rest, but there is no reversal in motion.2.6.Visualize:Please refer to Figure EX2.6. The particle starts at010 mx=at00.t=Its velocity is initially inthe–xdirection.
