Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Jumping Joe Simple

Students must find the distance that Joey will travel as a projectile based on the kinetic energy that he possesses.

Students must predict the distance traveled by a person on a BMX bike. The person will start with potential energy due to gravity and then convert it into KE. They will then hit a ramp and become a projectile. You have to predict how far...

Determine the electric field at a point in the vicinity of a charge.

Students must calculate the maximum distance they can be from an soccer net and still hit a randomly generated target. The speed and angle of the kick will be generated randomly.

Students must determine the horizontal speed of a projectile based on the distance that it travels and other given information. Students must find the time of flight and put it in milliseconds. Finally, students must find the final...

Determine the net work that is done when a gas is brought through a simple process. Data is obtained from a PV Diagram.

Determine the resistance of a wire based on its composition and its physical dimensions. Then give the area of the wire in square meters and the resistance of the wire in Ohms.

Determine the resistance of a wire based on its composition and its physical dimensions. Find the current that would flow through the wire when the wire is connected to a certain voltage.

Students must find out the velocity vector for a student practicing their marching at night under a strobe light.

In this problem you must determine the intensity of a sound wave when it reaches a given location away from its source.
