Equations of Motion:
1) A driver is traveleing at 40m/s when they see a speed limit sign that says 10 m/s. One second later they
hit the brakes and the car slows down at a rate of 5 m/s?. How far behind is the sign from the car when the
car reaches the legal speed limit?
Free-Fall Acceleration
2) You throw a ball upward with an initial velocity of 5 m/s. Ignoring air resistance (a) how high does it
go (b) how long does it take for the ball to fall back to your hand?
