A car is stopped at a traffic light.

A car is traveling at a speed of 30 m/s, a typical highway speed, on wet pavement. The driver sees an obstacle ahead and decides to stop. From this instant, it takes him 0.75 s to begin applying the brakes. Once the brakes are applied, the car experiences an acceleration of -6.0 m/s2. How far does the car travel from the instant the driver notices the obstacle until it stops?

To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeoff velocity, depends on several factors, including the weight of the aircraft and the wind velocity. A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00 m/s2m/s2 along a runway that is 1800 mm long. Assume that the plane reaches the required takeoff velocity at the end of the runway. What is the time tTOtTO needed to take off? What is the distance d_last traveled by the plane in the last second before taking off?
