1. **Problem 1: Sign of vectors for Marie-Philip Poulin**
Given: Positive direction is toward Team USA net.
(a) Velocity vector sign: Since she is moving toward Team USA net, velocity is positive.
(b) Displacement vector sign: Displacement is measured from Team Canada net toward Team USA net, so displacement is positive.
(c) Acceleration vector sign: She is slowing down while moving forward, so acceleration is opposite to velocity, hence negative.
(d) Velocity magnitude: Since she is slowing down, velocity magnitude is decreasing.
(e) Displacement magnitude: She is still moving forward, so displacement magnitude is increasing.
2. **Problem 2: Tyler McGregor's net displacement**
Tyler moves 5m right (+x), 8m forward (+y), then 2m left (-x).
Net displacement components:
$$x = 5 - 2 = 3\,m$$
$$y = 8\,m$$
Magnitude of displacement:
$$d = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} = \sqrt{3^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{9 + 64} = \sqrt{73} \approx 8.54\,m$$
Direction (angle from x-axis):
$$\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{8}{3}\right) \approx 69.44^\circ$$
3. **Problem 3: Football kick by Andres Borregales**
Given:
Initial velocity $v = 25\,m/s$, angle $\theta = 44^\circ$, gravity $g = 9.81\,m/s^2$.
(a) Maximal height $H$:
Vertical component of velocity:
$$v_y = v \sin \theta = 25 \times \sin 44^\circ \approx 25 \times 0.6947 = 17.37\,m/s$$
Use formula:
$$H = \frac{v_y^2}{2g} = \frac{(17.37)^2}{2 \times 9.81} = \frac{301.7}{19.62} \approx 15.38\,m$$
(b) Horizontal displacement (range) $R$:
Horizontal component of velocity:
$$v_x = v \cos \theta = 25 \times \cos 44^\circ \approx 25 \times 0.7193 = 17.98\,m/s$$
Time to reach ground:
Time to max height:
$$t_{up} = \frac{v_y}{g} = \frac{17.37}{9.81} \approx 1.77\,s$$
Total flight time:
$$t = 2 t_{up} = 3.54\,s$$
Range:
$$R = v_x \times t = 17.98 \times 3.54 \approx 63.65\,m$$
4. **Problem 4: Tennis ball bounce velocity and height**
Given:
Mass $m = 0.058\,kg$, drop height $h_d = 1.4\,m$, vertical velocity before impact $v_1 = 3\,m/s$ downward, coefficient of restitution $e = 0.76$.
(a) Velocity after impact $v_2$:
Coefficient of restitution formula:
$$e = \frac{|v_2|}{|v_1|} \Rightarrow v_2 = e \times v_1 = 0.76 \times 3 = 2.28\,m/s$$
Direction is upward, so velocity after impact is $+2.28\,m/s$.
(b) Bounce height $h_b$:
Using energy relation:
$$e = \sqrt{\frac{h_b}{h_d}} \Rightarrow h_b = e^2 \times h_d = (0.76)^2 \times 1.4 = 0.5776 \times 1.4 = 0.808\,m$$
**Final answers:**
1. (a) +, (b) +, (c) -, (d) decreasing, (e) increasing
2. Net displacement $\approx 8.54\,m$ at $69.44^\circ$ from x-axis
3. (a) Max height $\approx 15.38\,m$, (b) Range $\approx 63.65\,m$
4. (a) Velocity after impact $2.28\,m/s$ upward, (b) Bounce height $0.808\,m$
