Problem 8: A toy car of mass mis on a level table that is a height habove level ground. While on the table, the toy moves in a straight line and has an acceleration given by a = Bl. It starts from rest at - and travels on the table for 1 seconds. Once it reaches the edge of the
table, it falls towards the ground under the effect of gravity alone. Neglect air resistance and take the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity to
be g.
Determine the horizontal distance that the car traveled while in the air, after leaving the table, before hitting the ground below. Give your answer in terms of
B,1,g, and/or h.

Learning goal: to understand newton's 1st law. newton's principia states this first law of motion: an object subject to no net force maintains its state of motion, either at rest or at constant speed in a right line. this law may be restated as follows: if the sum of all forces acting on an object is zero, then the acceleration of that object is zero. mathematically this is just a special case of the 2nd law of motion, f⃗ =ma⃗ , when f⃗ =0. when studying newtonian mechanics, it is best to remember the 1st law in two ways: if the net force (i.e., sum of all forces) acting on an object is zero, the object will keep moving with constant velocity (which may be zero). if an object is moving with constant velocity, that is, with zero acceleration, then the net force acting on that object must be zero. complete the following sentences to see if you can apply these ideas. part a if a car is moving to the left with constant velocity, one can conclude that
