You and a friend are jumping on a trampoline. Why
does Earth, which is rapidly orbiting around the sun,
not move under your feet when you jump?
a.
There are different rules in space and on the
surface of the earth
b.
Newton’s first law holds that your body moves
along with Earth because it is not compelled to change
its motion by an unbalanced force.
c.
Newton’s second law holds that the
acceleration produced by the force of gravity is offset
by the force of friction on your feet.
d.
Newton’s third law holds that there is an equal
and opposite force exerted by the trampoline on your
feet, which allows you to move with Earth through
space.

It is now 10:29 AM but when the bell rings at 10:30AM David
will be late for Science Class for the third time this week. He
must get from one side of the school to the other by
hurrying down three different hallways. He runs down the
first hallway, a distance of 35.0m, at a speed of 3.5m/s. The
second hallway is filled with students, and he covers its 48.0m
length at an average speed of 1.2m/s. The final hallway is
empty, and David sprints its 60.0m length at a speed of
5.00m/s
A) Does David make it to class on time or does he get
detention form being lat again? (If David does make it on
time, by how much time does he make it to class early. Or
if David does not make it on time, how late is he for class.)
B) Draw a distance vs time graph of the situation.
