1. A squirrel runs along an overhead telephone wire that -2.70
m stretches from the top of one pole to the next. The
creature is initially at position xi = 2.91 m, as mea-
sured from the center of the wire segment. It then
undergoes a displacement of Δx = -5.61 m. What is
the squirrel\'s final position xf?
2. Identify the vector quantities below: 14.4 m/s South
16.3 m at 25.7o
14.4 m/s South
578.0
39.9 ft
16.3 m at 25.7o
6.24 m
3. One mile is equal to 1.609 km. What is 30.0 mph in 13.4 m/s
m/s?
a) 6.70 m/s
b) 9.83 m/s
c) 13.4 m/s
d) 18.7 m/s
4. After an average acceleration of 3.39 m/s2 during 2.29 8.3
m/s s, a car reaches a final velocity of 16.1 m/s. Find the
car's initial velocity.
a) 8.3 m/s
b) 9.8 m/s
c) 10.4 m/s

A fox locates its prey under the snow by slight sounds
rodents make. The fox then leaps straight into the
air, and then burrows its nose into the snow to catch
its meal. If a fox jumps up to a height of 91 cm,
calculate the speed at which the fox leaves the snow,
and how long the fox is in the air. Ignore air
resistance.
a) 2.1 m/s and 0.43 s
b) 2.1 m/s and 0.86 s
c) 4.2 m/s and 0.43 s
d) 4.2 m/s and 0.86 s
