A car accelerates from rest in a straight line. During the first 14s, the acceleration is uniform and the car reaches the speed of 25m/s. Calculate the acceleration of the car.

Arescue plane flying horizontally at spots a survivor in the ocean directly below and releases an emergency kit with a parachute. because of the shape of the parachute, it experiences insignificant horizontal air resistance. if the kit descends with a constant vertical acceleration of, how far away from the survivor will it hit the waves?

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
