2.2 Speed and Velocity A movie stunt double is supposed to run across the top of a train (in the opposite direction that the train is moving) and just barely jump off before reaching a tunnel, but after reaching the end of the train (starting from the front). If the train is moving at 250 km/hr, is 1 km long and the tunnel is 10 km away from the end (where the stunt double is going to jump from), how fast (in km/hr) will the stunt double need to run? i km/hr

6. A train is moving with a constant speed. The train moves 60 meters for every 1.5 seconds that elapses. a. Assume that we get 40 by dividing 60 by 1.5. What is the name that is commonly given to a quantity represented by this number 40? b. To denote the quantity completely, what additional information must be given besides the number 40? c. How would you interpret the number 40 in this instance? Your answer should mention distance and time. d. Use your interpretation (not algebra) to find the distance the train moves in 2.5 seconds.
A cat walks in a straight line, which we shall call the -axis, with the positive direction to the right. As an observant physicist, you make measurements of this cat's motion and construct a graph of the feline's velocity as a function of time (Figure 1). I. Calculate the area under the graph between t = 0 and t = 6.0 s. (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.) II. For the time interval t = 0 to t = 6.0 s, what is the magnitude of the average velocity of the cat? (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.) III. Use constant-acceleration equations to calculate the distance the cat travels in this time interval. (Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)
