(a) What was Misty’s average speed?meter Butterfly, setting a new Olympic Record in 2:05.88.Hyman upset two of the best Australian swimmers in the 200. 1.) In the land Down Under (tape delayed, of course) Misty

Note that the time is 2 minutes, 5.88 seconds, not 2 hours…

Assuming that Misty has (b) To dive into the pool, the swimmers start 1.45 m above the water.

(^) , how much time does it take for her to

fall into the water?

(c) What is the

(^) y- component of her velocity when she hits the water?

Can be done with or without (b).

(d) Assuming that

(^) v x is the average speed of the race, find the vector velocity,

(^) v  (^) , in standard form.

If you

Find the acceleration needed to go from the average speed of the race in a distance of 1.21 m. (e) The 200. m races are swum in four lengths of the pool. That means that you have to make three turns. didn’t get an answer to (a) use a speed of 4.26 m/s; if you didn’t get (c), use a speed of 5.43 m/s.

If you

didn’t get an answer to (a) use a speed of 4.26 m/s.
