Write an equation to model the height of a golf ball above the ground t seconds after it has been hit, given that the balls starts at ground level and reaches a maximum height of 32 meters above the ground 4 seconds after it is hit.
You are sitting in your car at a red light when you see a zombie standing still 65m in front of your car. You both begin to accelerate towards each other. Your car accelerates at 1.8 m/s^2 and the zombie accelerates at 0.6 m/s^2. How long does it take for you to strike the zombie? Make sure to include a diagram of the physical situation, label know and unknown quantities with units, coordinate system. Please use grade 12 kinematics and label the variables as v1, v2, a (Acceleration), t (time), d (displacement) Thanks!

While driving down the highway at 30m/s(which is about 72 mph) Bill Gambini spotsa police car, sirens flashing. At exactly 1:00 pm, when the police car is also travelingat 30m/s and is 100 meters behind Bill’s car, Bill floors the gas pedal, giving his caran acceleration of 2m/s 2. Bill keeps the pedal floored for 5 seconds. During this time,the police car continues moving at 30m/s, and the officer radios for backup. a) How fast is Bill’s car moving at the end of those 5 seconds? b) At the end of those 5 seconds, how much distance is between Bill’s car and the police car? c) At the end of those 5 seconds, Bill, encouraged by his passenger Stan, hits the brake.His car slows down at a constant rate of 1.5m/ s 2. At what time will Bill’s car cometo a complete halt? d) Make a rough (non-numerical) sketch of Bill’s position vs. time, starting from 1:00p.m. and ending when his car comes to rest.

A driver, driving at a constant speed of 30m/s in a 50 mph zone, is unaware that he is being observed by an approaching police car (coming toward him from the front). At time t = 0, they are 800m apart and the police car has an approach speed of 40 m/s. When will the police officer catch up with the motorist? a) 80 s b) 68.6 s c) 11.4 s
Please answer the following question(s): 1. The speed of a boat in still water is vá. A river flows with a speed of v₁. The boat travels distance of 19 miles downstream in a river in 1 hour. However, the return journey takes 2 hours. Calculate the vand v₁. Hint: Velocity=displacement/time. Displacement can be positive of neagtive depending on the direction. You will first need to set up the equations by taking into account the resultant velocity of the boat in flowing water. Consider the direction the river is flowing to be positive. Set up two equations, one for the downstream journey and one for the upstream journey, in terms of "v" and "v": Do v" and "v, add or substract downstream to give the resultant downstream velocity? Do v" and "v, add or substract upstream togive the resultant upstream velocity? Use the upstream direction as negative. The resultant upstream velocity should be negative. vb vb Downstream positive Vr Upstream negative Vr
