A car starts from rest at point O and accelerates uniformly on a straight road for 10 seconds until it reaches point A with a speed of 20 m/s (Stage OA). At point A, the car continues with a constant speed of 20 m/s for 3 minutes (Stage AB).

A car starts from rest with an acceleration of 5.7 m/s² which decreases linearly with time to zero in 8.2 seconds, after which the car continues at a constant speed. Determine the time t required for the car to travel 240 m from the start. Answer: t = i S
Car A is traveling at 65 km/h when it enters a 50 km/h speed zone. The driver of car A decelerates at a rate of 20 m/s2 until reaching a speed of 50 km/h, which she then maintains. When car B, which was initially 20 m behind car A and traveling at a constant speed of 70 km/h, enters the speed zone, its driver decelerates at a rate of 25 m/s2 until reaching a speed of 48 km/h. Knowing that the driver of car B maintains a speed of 48 km/h, determine a) the closest that car B comes to ca A, b) the time at which car A is 25 m in front of car B.
Fast Car: On a hot day in the flats, the temperature is 103.6 degrees. A driver finds an empty, flat stretch of desert that is 1776 meters long and decides to push the limits of his car. He finds the car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (26.8 m/s) in 4.30 s. Now he wants to see how fast the car can go. Assume the car maintains the same average acceleration until it reaches its top speed of 84.8 m/s. (a) How long will it take the car to reach its top speed? (b) How far will the car travel before it reaches its top speed?
I need help solving this question. A rocket starting from rest rises vertically and accelerates at a constant rate of 13 m/s2 for 7 min. At this point the engine of the rocket accidently fails and completely shuts down. (Neglect air resistance and any variation in the acceleration due to gravity) a) What is the speed of the rocket when the engine shuts down? b) How high is the rocket above the ground at the point where the engine shuts down? c) How much higher will the rocket rise after the engine fails? d) What is the total time of the rocket in air? e) What is the average speed of the rocket for the entire trip?
On a hot day in the flats, the temperature is 100.9 degrees. A driver finds an empty, flat stretch of desert that is 1575 meters long and decides to push the limits of his car. He finds the car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (26.8 m/s) in 4.21 s. Now he wants to see how fast the car can go. Assume the car maintains the same average acceleration until it reaches its top speed of 69.1 m/s. (a) How long will it take the car to reach its top speed? (b) How far will the car travel before it reaches its top speed?
An airplane decelerates at a constant rate of 4.92 m/s when it landed on the runway of an airport. For a duration of 18 s, the plane has covered a distance of 1371 m between two points along the airport runway. What is the speed of the airplane at the first point? 31.9 m/s 120 m/s 88.6 m/s 116 m/s
You and your family are going on a road trip to visit your recently married cousin in B.C. The total round trip distance is 2100 km. On the way to B.C., you encounter no setbacks and you are able to drive on average at a constant speed. On the way home from B.C., you encounter a snowstorm and your mom has to slow down to avoid getting into an accident. Thus, your average speed decreases by 10 km/h. If the total driving time was 42 hours, what was your average speed on the way to B.C.? Recall distance = speed x time.
A person hits a trampoline while moving downward with a speed of 9 m/s and rebounds a short time later with roughly the same speed upward. If the person is in contact with the trampoline for about 1.8 s, what are the magnitude and direction of the person’s average acceleration during this time interval? (Hint: You can ignore the effects due to gravity
A subway car leaves station A; it gains speed at the rate of 4 ft/s² for 6 s and then at the rate of 6 ft/s² until it has reached the speed of 48 ft/s. The car maintains the same speed until it approaches station B; brakes are then applied, giving the car a constant deceleration and bringing it to a stop in 6 s. The total running time from A to B is 40 s. Determine the distance between stations A and B.
