To pass a physical education class at a university, a student must run 1.0 mi in 12 min. After running for 10 min, she still has 500 yd to go. If her maximum acceleration is 0.15 m/s2, can she make it? If the answer is no, determine what acceleration she would need to be successful.
In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one-way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and BL11t accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, how long did it take Burt to complete the course?
Which one of the following statements concerning speed is true? Select one: a. Speed can be a positive or negative number. b. The direction of the speed is directed from the starting point of motion to the ending point. c. Speed is always a negative number. d. The average speed is always the same as the instantaneous speed. e. Speed is always a positive number.
