A driver is driving uphill. He maintained his throttle, causing his car to constantly decelerate as it is coming up the hill. The road going up the hill is 217 m long and it took him 8.8 seconds to get to the top of the hill. His speed has reduced to 22 m/s at that point. What was the car's acceleration (include a negative sign in your answer)? Hint: the initial position of the car can be set at the origin.
A small block has constant acceleration as it slides down a frictionless incline. The block is released from rest at the top of the incline, and its speed after it has traveled 6.60 m to the bottom of the incline is 3.80 m/s. Q: What is the speed of the block when it is 3.80 m from the top of the incline?
Problem 5: a) What is the final velocity of a train that starts with a velocity of 4 m/s then accelerates at 0.05 m/s² for 8 minutes? b) Once at this speed, how long will it take the train to decelerate to a stop if it can slow at a rate of 0.55 m/s² when braking? c) What distance does the train travel while it is braking to a stop?
A golf ball is dropped from rest from a height of 9.90 m. It hits the pavement, then bounces back up, rising just 6.30 m before falling back down again. A boy then catches the ball when it is 1.40 m above the pavement. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the total amount of time that the ball is in the air, from drop to catch. Number i Units

A ball is thrown upward from the ground with initial velocity vi = 19 m/s and reaches height of h above the ground before falling back down. Take the upward direction to be positive. Refer to the figure. Neglect air resistance. 1) Enter an expression for the height of the ball at a given time, h, the ball reaches in terms of the velocity at the current height vh, the initial velocity vi, and the acceleration a. 2) Enter an expression for the time it takes for the ball to travel from the ground to the a given height, Δt, in terms of the initial velocity vi, the velocity at that height vh, and the acceleration a.
Kalea throws a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 14.5 m/s. How high h does the ball rise above its release point? Ignore air resistance and use g = 9.80 m/s². h = m
A circular racetrack has a distance of 755 m. A racer is currently driving her car on the racetrack. As she starts the car from rest, it begins to accelerate to a speed of 120 kph in 9 s. a. Determine the magnitude of the total acceleration of the car, 4 s after the car begins to increase its speed. b. If she maintains the speed of the car to be 120 kph, determine the magnitude of the total acceleration of the car after 5s. c. Upon accelerating to 120 kph, will the car pass its starting point? Prove using kinematic equations.
A ball is thrown straight downward with an initial speed of 6.43 from the roof of a building. It hits the ground a time of 1.14s after it is thrown. Ignore air resistance. The height of the building is _m. Express your answer as a positive number.
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?
