*39. GO Refer to Multiple-Concept Example 5 to review a method by which this problem can be solved. You are driving your car, and the traffic light ahead turns red. You apply the brakes for 3.00 s, and the velocity of the car decreases to +4.50 m/s. The car's decelera- tion has a magnitude of 2.70 m/s² during this time. What is the car's displacement?

Lately, Jason has been taking drivers' ed so that he can get his license. However, he's also been taking physics, and so he wonders what his acceleration is, when he drives on a circular path in an empty parking lot near Peachtree Mall with diameter 78.0 m, if he is driving at a constant speed of 23.0 m/s. What is his acceleration? O 66.1 m/s² 13.6 m/s2 O 0.590 m/s² O 1.70 m/s² O 0 m/s²

An object's position in a given coordinate system is described by the vector r = t2 i - (3t + 3) j. Assume the object moves without air resistance.a. What is the magnitude of the object's average velocity between t1=1s and t2= 3s?
A rocket leaves its platform with acceleration ⃗ a= ( 4.00 ^i+2.00 ^j ) m/s2 and initialvelocity v0= ( 8.00 ^i+12.0 ^j ) m/s for 5.00 seconds. After this 5.00 second interval, the rocket’sengines are turned off, and the rocket then travels as a projectile.a. Determine how long the rocket is in the air.b. What is the rocket’s velocity vector (in unit-vector notation) just before it hits theground?
An electron, in a picture tube of a TV set, travelling in a straight line, accelerates uniformly from speed 4.0 x 10^4 to 9.0 x 10^6 m/s along a lenght of 2.0 cm a. How much time does the electron spend in this 2 cm region? b. What is the magnitude of the electron's acceleration?
I have an unusual question. I am getting confused with my graphs. I completed a few graphs and one in particular, a displacement-time graph was presented as displacement (cm) and time (s). Velocity is usually always written as m/s. Per the graph, would I comply and fill in my Velocity as cm/s or m/s?
I understand to solve this practice problem for each acceleration, I do the change in velocity/change in time and that the only thing I'm missing is the speed at the end of the first time interval. I just can't figure out exactly how to configure the problem.

1. A bicyclist is finishing his repair of a flat tire when a friend rides by with a constant speed of 4.0 m/s. Three seconds later the bicyclist hops on his bike and begins to follow the friend with an initial speed of 10 m/s. Assume the bicyclist continues at a constant speed of 10 m/s until he catches the friend. a) Calculate the time it takes to catch his friend. b) How fast is he moving when he catches his friend? c) How far did he travel to catch his friend?
3. The velocity of a particle traveling along a straight line is v = (3t – 4t) ft/s, where t is in seconds. If s = 4 ft when t = 0, determine the position of the particle when t = 4 s. What is the total distance traveled during the time interval t = 0 to t = 4 s?
